Hi I would like to follow the crowd and find out what text editor everyone uses for haskell on windows.
Thx in advanced
I don't use editors with automatic indentation. Instead, I forget the layout rule (i.e., module Main (main) where {main = putStrLn Hi where {Hi="Hello World"}}). Then I send the result to a pretty printer. It's a lot easier to get code to make the parser happy without layout, and pretty printers do a really good job. Problem is, my pretty printer stoped working. There's 'hstidy' in hackage, but I'm not sure it's alive. Best, Maurício
