Hi Ian,

    I am trying to dump out all function signatures exported from System.Directory. I just tried
inside ghci: :! ghc --show-iface System.Directory. This is getting closer ... thank you! However, now there appears to be a "path" problem because I get an error message: " System.Directory: openBinaryFile: does not exist (No such file or directory)". ??

Thanks, Vasya

I'm not sure I understand your question, nor am I sure which bit of the
users guide you are looking at - can you tell us the section number
please?

Is

   ghc --show-iface Foo.hi

what you want? Or

   :t Data.List.length

from inside ghci?


Thanks
Ian
