I'm fine with that as well. I'm just opposed to being force to look up the precise names the compiler happens to use for each language extension I happen to use. Having -fglasgow-exts turned on by default also works. -Alex- Wolfgang Jeltsch wrote:

.ehs stands for extended haskell and encapsulates the 90% case of people just wanting -fglasgow-exts with a minimum of fuss.
Having a filetype seesm better than the alternatives of either adding boilerplate language/options pragmas to the top of your source files or putting them in a cabal file.

And if a new Haskell standard is released, we have to rename lots of files from *.ehs to *.hs. :-(
Extended Haskell is Haskell in a different version. So it’s still Haskell and should be put into *.hs files.
