Most uses of "$" are for stupid things like "sin $ 1 + 2" where parentheses would be much more clear.
"$" simplifies visual perception through two factors: 1. we are relieved from counting parentheses 2. it serves as a cue to treat the entire remaining part until ")" as part of the same expression Case in point (only slightly contrived) -- which one is easier to visually parse to you: foo (thInt $ fromIntegral $ c2hsValueInt cexp) (thInt $ fromIntegral $ c2hsValueInt cexp) foo (thInt (fromIntegral (c2hsValueInt cexp))) (thInt (fromIntegral (c2hsValueInt cexp))) Me, I get a blood pressure spike roughy here ---^ -- с уважениeм / respectfully, Косырев Сергей
