Re: [Haskell-cafe] Derived Read instance for types with infix constructors (ghc 6.4.1)

Another thing: Would it be a good idea to create derived Read instances that could parse both, "A `And` A" and "And A A" ? Since 6.4.2 parses the former and 6.2.2 parses the latter that should be possible, I believe (and both forms are accepted at the ghci prompt).

I made a Template Haskell function that does exactly that. I wrote about it to the template-haskell list: http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/template-haskell/2006-September/000587.html Cheers, Misha
