-XOverloadedStrings Perfect, thanks.
Is this supported by other Haskell implementations, or planned for Haskell'?
Not as far as I know. It was added to GHC just over 2 years ago,
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.haskell.cvs.all/31022
and isn't terribly widely used. Probably ByteString literals are the current main use (along with interesting EDSL applications, which was the original motivation afaik).
Ok, thanks. In my case it just makes the code nicer; it is not a critical feature. Manlio
