You can name the source files whatever you like, and you can associate them with your desired ececutable names in the cabal file.

Eg. In a cabal file:

...
executable        zshhs
  main-is:        ZshClone.hs
  hs-source-dirs: src
  ...

Where "zshhs" is the desired binary output name, and the directory containing this cabal file also contains "src/ZshClone.hs" with your main function.

I got a private reply which helps but it made me think of another question.

In the stack demo, there's one executable 'helloworld-exe' which is compiled from app/Main.hs.

If I'm going to have several executables, what do I call the source files, and how do I control the file name of the executable that gets built?

Thanks,
