Hi Bulat, Thanks for the suggestions! On Tue, Sep 19, 2006 at 05:52:53PM +0400, Bulat Ziganshin wrote:
in GHC library paragraph - add a link to the API documentation. btw, my download (http://www.haskell.org/ghc/dist/current/dist/ghc-6.5.20060901-i386-unknown-m...) don't includes any library docs nor $(GHC)/doc/html/libraries/index.html can you please fix this?
I'll probably look into this as part of the move to buildbot. In the meantime, the most recent docs should be available at http://www.haskell.org/ghc/dist/current/docs/
also, it will be great to use each library section heading as URL to the docs of corresponding library:
1.4.4.1 [[url://libraries/base/index.html base]]
We don't have this, do we? All the library docs are combined in libraries/index.html.
"GHC.Exts now provides a function lazy which forces GHC to think that its argument is lazy in its first argument. " - a copy-paste typo?
Do you mean the double "argument"? If so, then no: In lazy f f is "its argument", and f is lazy in f's "first argument". This is a pain to explain clearly and concisely. Is this better?: GHC.Exts now provides a magic function /lazy/ such that GHC is forced to think that /lazy f/ is lazy in its first argument. Or am I misunderstanding your point completely? Thanks Ian
