BTW, would it be worthwhile to let haddock use a list of default interfaces, say on installation it would create a file with -i /usr/...../base.haddock -i /usr/...../parsec.haddock &cetera in it, later a user might add other often used interfaces ?

Okay, writing one's own script isn't too hard, so there's no real need for it, but it would be nice for dummies like me.

I'd like Haddock to know about installed packages, and in fact we're part of the way there in GHC 6.4 because the package database now includes the locations of the .haddock file and the HTML for each package. I just have to modify Haddock to query the package database... Cheers, Simon
