That's a great idea! I love "not very smart" tools like that one. I don't know (yet) how HLS works, but is it possible to build something like that into it so it would be more accessible to people? (Asking the Cafe in general.) It might provide less pressure to change Haskell syntax, i.e. https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/pull/569...

I've long used a program to toggle between raw text and haskell string syntax (either wrapped words, unwrapped \-continued, or ["x", "y"] "unlines" style). I use it with vim but it's a plain text filter: https://github.com/elaforge/simple-src-utils

It's not very smart but has worked well enough that I haven't bothered to fix the rough bits.

Nothing built in, but I think there's a proposal for better multiline string support in the compiler. (Yep: https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/pull/569)

Dear Cafe,

This would be simple enough to implement, perhaps someone has already done it? base, right? I know that there are multitudes of packages that implement this, but would just like something that is built in.)

Thanks!
