OK it was stupid. Apparently GHC behaves differently according to what the name of the high level source file is. If I renamed test.hc to main.hc everything works the same as GHCi. I probably should actually read the manual some day.
Some operating systems have a "test" program, which gets called if you just enter "test". Try using "./test" and see if it makes a difference. _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
Sorry forgot to quote the original message. and my reply: Yes I do have another test on my path. It is in a utilities directory of unix like commands that have been ported to windows. However I also have a test.exe that was created by ghc that seems to do nothing, even if I type ./test.exe. Thanks for the hint though. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Baffled-by-Disk-IO-tf2021760.html#a5566174 Sent from the Haskell - Haskell-Cafe forum at Nabble.com.
