: What should I be using for the file name for the read-interface option in haddock?
You must use a file that is on your own hard drive and that is generated with version 2.0 of Haddock, since that is what you're using. The interface file format was changed in Haddock 2.0 due its use of GHC data types, so you can't use 0.x interface files.
You need to generate base.haddock with Haddock 2.0. One way to do that, is to make sure Haddock 2.0 is installed, then get the GHC 6.8.2 sources (with core libs) and build that with Haddock docs enabled.
Hope this helps, David
Thanks I've done this dom@lagrange:~/asn15/asn1> haddock -v -html -o hdoc Pretty.hs -B /usr/lib/ghc-6.8.2 --optghc="-fglasgow-exts" --read-interface=http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/6.8.2/html/libraries/base,/home/dom/ghc-6.8.... but now when I click on e.g. Integer I get directed to http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/6.8.2/html/libraries/base/GHC-Num.html#t%3AI... which doesn't exist. Integer actually exists in http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/6.8.2/html/libraries/base/Prelude.html#t%3AI... What do I need to do to get haddock to point at the right links? Dominic.
