Hi, I am looking for an easy way to generate text reports. For starters I need a very simple report that may contain: - Some headers - Lists of text strings where each string can include instances of basic Haskell types. Each string should be printed on a separate line (terminated with LF). Do I understand this right that for such simple reports (as above) Text.Printf is the main tool? As a next step, a simple report engine controlled by templates or DSL would help. Thanks!
Try http://hackage.haskell.org/package/HStringTemplate.

If you are wanting to output to HTML or something, I suggest using pandoc as a library or else one of the HTML templating libraries. If it's more of a specific format, maybe use a pretty-printing library directly? -- Ivan Lazar Miljenovic Ivan.Miljenovic@gmail.com IvanMiljenovic.wordpress.com
