Re: [Haskell-cafe] ANN: newports.hs utility for freebsd

What is the advantage of using Haskell in this case?

bryan is correct! i hesitated to even bother the cafe list with this, considering it is so trivial, but i just wanted to learn a bit more about haskell's file and directory functionality, and this bit of code may be something others can look at for some quickie code samples dons - i will definitely "finish the job" and create a .cabal file, and i will post my learning experiences with the packaging tools on my site as well so other newbies can see how easy it is to create official hackage code thanks!
