[Haskell-cafe] Hackage treatment of source code

Hackage allows one to retrieve "source". However, the so-called source code can't be used, because it is a colorized .html file, not .hs. Even if one wants to use only a snippet of what's on the screen, one must turn to the heavy artillery of Cabal to get it. Can there not be an option to retrieve plain text from Hackage without interposing the colorizer? Doug McIlroy
