Everything else that is currently in the Haskell'98 Prelude is re-distributed across a variety of small modules. Where a syntactic desugaring rule currently uses an entity from the Prelude, the new interpretation is that it uses whatever binding of that entity is in scope - if there is no such entity in scope, it is an error. For compatibility, we define a wrapper module called Prelude.Standard which re-exports the original Haskell'98 Prelude:
module Prelude.Standard ( module Prelude , module Prelude.Num , module Prelude.Comparison , module Prelude.Monad , module Prelude.List , module Prelude.Maybe , module Prelude.Either , module Prelude.Tuple , module Prelude.IO , module Prelude.Text )
It would be nice if there was an easy way to import an entire Haskell98 prelude hiding only Prelude.List.* stuff (for example). This would be possible if all Prelude.* modules would be imported automatically, but I guess it's not what you propose.
