Yes - I said that in a later e-mail but it doesn't fix me violating my own peeve about non-functional code snippits on -cafe.
I guess we're spoiled by the type checker catching all our mistakes. Since I recently discovered the new and wonderful world of C-c C-l in haskell-mode, I wonder if it'd be hard (or if anybody already done so!) to incorporate this for literate-style Haskell in email? Wouldn't it be great if I could, just prior to sending a message, hit C-c C-l to load the *message* buffer in a Haskell process to check that it indeed works as expected, and if you, on reading it, could hit the same key combination to do the same? The birdstep-style might cause difficulties given the same mark's use as standard quoting indicator. And of course, most people use more pedestrian, Turing-inhibited MUAs these days... -k -- If I haven't seen further, it is by standing in the footprints of giants
