Hi,

I would like to write a Haskell pretty-printer, using standard libraries for that. How can I check if the original and the pretty-printed versions are the same? For instance, is there a file generated by GHC at the compilation pipe that is always guaranteed to have the same MD5 hash when it comes from equivalent source?

I don't know the answers to your question, but if you're looking for inspiration on your project you should check out the following two packages: http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/haskell-src http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/haskell-src-exts -Antoine
