| One option is to ask ghc-package to list the available packages and | see if readline appears. We're hatching a plan, as part of the library infrastructure project, to do just that. Stay tuned. We should emit a draft spec for comment in a couple of weeks. Simon

New subject: checking for a working System.Console.Readline
| readline
Since you mention readline - I have a rather tiny nit to pick: ghci happily completes filenames starting with ~ (indicating home directory), but file operations typically don't grok it. As I said, hardly an earth shattering show stopper, but a small wart that might be easy to remove? -kzm -- If I haven't seen further, it is by standing in the footprints of giants
