Oops. I just fixed the docs. The URL I am using is http://searchpath.org/default.map I intend to get an SSL cert for this but have not done so yet. -Alex- On Fri, 16 Jun 2006, Dimitry Golubovsky wrote:

Searchpath allows you easily to give each application its own namespace and automates import chasing accross the internet. It is a work in progress and is definitely less refined than cabal, but if you are having this sort of issue you might want to try it out. See http://searchpath.org

Looks very interesting. However I couldn't get anything like "https://hackage.org/modules.map" in a browser (nor with http: nor from www.hackage.org): it says "unknown host".

I am just curious: instead of querying a centralized database, have you tried any way to get modules' locations from search engines?

I wish I could see what "modules.map" looks like, then I could see better whether what Cabalfind gets from Google could be an alternative?

Not that I am pushing for Cabalfind in any way; just curious.
