Hello I'm trying to learn how to use Template Haskell and I'm finding that the documentation is sparse. In particular, the constructors for Dec, Exp, Con, etc. in Language.Haskell.TH.Syntax aren't explained. Would documentation patches be welcomed for this library? Thanks, Richard
The current documentation is laughably sparse. Documentation patches would be hugely welcomed. Thank you! Alfonso is also working actively on TH at the moment.

Hi Richard,
I'm trying to learn how to use Template Haskell and I'm finding that the documentation is sparse. In particular, the constructors for Dec, Exp, Con, etc. in Language.Haskell.TH.Syntax aren't explained.
Yes, absolutely true. I myself had to look at the sources when I first used TH to find out what the types exactly meant. Just in case, you can find the definition of the types in http://darcs.haskell.org/packages/template-haskell/Language/Haskell/TH/Synta... There are helpful comments for each type (but unfortunatelly they are not annotated using haddock syntax)
Would documentation patches be welcomed for this library?
Certainly!
