I wish to have an editor that ran GHC[I] every few seconds or so, and underlined sites of syntax errors in red. This would save me a lot of back-and-forth. If an editor did this, I would switch (from kate) in a heartbeat.
This has been mentioned before in only one place that I can find:

Yeah, I could do it myself.
Shim *almost* does this; it has a key command to run GHC and highlight all the syntax and type errors, on mouseover displaying the error message. Someone experienced with Emacs could probably set up the automation easily... Stefan
