Hi Johannes,

I asked this some time ago:
https://www.haskell.org/pipermail/haskell-cafe/2013-June/108607.html

There is something in the HaRe refactoring tool (seems to be extracted from Programatica project):
https://github.com/RefactoringTools/HaRe/tree/master/tools/hs2html

However I don't think it's readily usable at this stage (seems to be quite outdated).

I also have this need for Nomyx:
https://github.com/cdupont/Nomyx/issues/5

I think it would be very useful and used if this was existing and usable :)

We could join forces to recreate it?

Best,
Corentin

I am using 'standalone-haddock --hyperlink-source'

is there some way to get hyperlinks *in* the source?

currently, I have to jump back and forth
between doc (which has all the links) and source (which I want to navigate -
actually, present for others so they can browse)

I understand there's a nontrivial design space
but I could imagine a basic functionality like:

for each identifier i (type, class, constructor, function)
that appears in the source,
generate the link that haddock would produce for " -- | 'i' "

(3.8.7. Hyperlinked Identifiers
