BTW, I can't seem to locate 'haskell-cafe'.

The message responding to my sign-up said nothing about haskell-cafe.

Perhaps it should. It's so long since I signed up to haskell that I've forgotten what the sign-up message says.

Also, in my infinte-looping application, I am wrapping the calculation in a 'take 1000' function - shouldn't this guarantee termination?

Not on its own loop = loop:: Char l = [1,2,3,loop,5,6] putStr $ show $ take 4 l will print 1 2 and 3 and then loop when trying to find the value for the fourth. -- Jón Fairbairn Jon.Fairbairn at cl.cam.ac.uk
