Hi, Since I sent this to the haskell list in the first place, I'd better let everyone know that it all worked out.

Hmm, there were no problems in simply doing so.

Ok, I've cut your example down a bit (just from a minimalist tendency). The complete modified code is ... \documentclass{report} \usepackage{verbatim} % vital \begin{document} \newenvironment{code}{\footnotesize\verbatim}{\endverbatim\normalsize} HaskellModule.lhs: Maybe some text... We call our module Foo, because this name is very meaningful. \begin{code} module Foo where \end{code} \end{document} Works just fine and seems robust. My original problem ... an over-developed tendency to go it alone? I was not using package verbatim, which does help, doesn't it.

I hope this will help.

Yup, thanks. Bruce.
