Is it possible to run haskell program in emacs without typing "main" in the ghci buffer? Assuming "main" function exists of course. Or, maybe automate sending "main\n" string to ghci buffer input. In other words, I want edit/run/see result style session.
This is probably possible if you have enough elisp-fu (which I don't, but have a look at Flymake Haskell). If so, it would be better to have this as a different emacs keybinding rather than the default haskell-load-file one, as 1) you won't always have a main action and 2) you won't always want to _run_ your main action (e.g. it launches nuclear missiles and you don't want to run that when you're just testing your countdown function...). However, by using ":main" in the ghci session you have a bit more control as it allows you to specify command-line flags and inputs, which running just "main" doesn't. -- Ivan Lazar Miljenovic Ivan.Miljenovic@gmail.com IvanMiljenovic.wordpress.com
