Anyway... long ramble over... Emacs isn't my operating system of choice. I prefer to use SciTE (which is *just* a text editor - as in, it doesn't also come with an integrated toaster and alarm clock). One SciTE window open, one command prompt pointing at the source folder... seems to work fairly well. Would be nice if SciTE would colourise Haskell syntax, but since Haskell is so absurdly hard to parse, I guess that's asking a lot. ;-)
SciTE is based on the Scintilla editor which comes with a lexer for Haskell. It's not particularly good, but it's better than nothing. If the latest version of SciTE doesn't support Haskell syntax highlighting then it should be very easy for the developers to add. /David
