Re: [Haskell-cafe] Haskell syntax/indentation for vim

I hadn't seen this before, but I tried it out, and the parts I'm interested in are nice. The indenting is less flaky than what I was using before (comments had issues). If you're rewriting things, though, it'd be nice to be able to customize indentation a little more. For instance, I like laying out ifs like: if foo then bar else baz But I like to lay out wheres as: foo = ... where bar = ... But both the indents here are based on shiftwidth, so they're tied together. Another 'nice to have' would be some intelligent outdenting. For instance, if you type a let block right now: let foo = zig bar = zag in ... That's what you'll get. It'd be nice if typing the 'in' snapped back to the let. I know it's possible to implement something like this, because the scala indentation mode I use frequently outdents when I type '=>' (which annoys the hell out of me, because it's almost never correct), but I don't know if it can be done intelligently enough to be useful (which would be important). Something to keep in mind, though. -- Dan On Sun, Mar 3, 2013 at 9:48 AM, dag.odenhall@gmail.com < dag.odenhall@gmail.com> wrote:

I see now in your README that you have seen vim2hs. I'd love to hear what you disliked about it, especially given my plan to rewrite the whole thing [1]! :)

Cafe,

I've recently been playing with vim and wasn't quite satisfied with the existing syntax highlighting and indentation, so I thought I'd try my hand at a new Haskell mode:

https://github.com/travitch/hasksyn

It is minimal in that it doesn't provide support for running external commands over code or anything fancy. It just does syntax highlighting and reasonably-smart indentation. There is no support for literate Haskell since supporting both with one mode is very tricky.

It might be useful to some people. Comments, bug reports, and suggestions welcome.
