Hello Neil,
It is my intention to try and get this FilePath library into the base,
please no!!! why you don't understand that including in base means death of development for any library! are you really want that anyone who need new version of your lib should recompile GHC himself?! libs should be included in "base libs" set and i proposed a few months ago to radically extend it by including fundamental libs, including FilePath. but base library, which contains ghc-version specific code and can't be upgraded using cabal, should not evolve. see our discussion in libraries maillist -- Best regards, Bulat mailto:Bulat.Ziganshin@gmail.com
