import Prelude hiding (head,(!!),read)

Any comments?

Here's one: I thought this would make it difficult to have other imports of Prelude, hiding other pieces of it (e.g. catch, to avoid ambiguities with Control.Exception.catch) (Also, the definition of 'bug' hinders forces the #include to be after any imports, not sure it's better to have a separate module for it, which would then need to be on the module search path) (I seem to be mainly following up to my own posts, so if somebody asks, I'll take this to a quiet corner at the -cafe :-) -kzm -- If I haven't seen further, it is by standing in the footprints of giants
