Thank you. As it turns out, I was aware of that recipe. What I wanted was to be able to use cabal install's nice dependency following features and still get source links in my documentation. Personally, I feel that inclusion of source and docs should be the DEFAULT for cabal, as well as for binary distributions of ghc. -rhayes On Dec 21, 2008, at 1:11 AM, Thomas Hartman wrote:

Is there a way I can get Haddock Docs WITH links to source (local) from modules installed with "cabal install xxx"?

Getting the docs themselves is pretty easy by changing either ~/.cabal/config or using --enable-documentation.

Automatically generating the source (colourised or not) and integrated links eludes me.
