I don't follow. At least with the infixr, output seems correct: .... *XMonad.Actions.Search Control.Monad Data.Char Data.List> use (wikipedia !> hoogle !> prefixAware google) "hoogle:foo" "http://www.haskell.org/hoogle/?q=foo" *XMonad.Actions.Search Control.Monad Data.Char Data.List> use multi "wiki:foo" "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Search?go=Go&search=foo"
Ugh, indeed. Sorry for the noise. I'm not sure what went wrong earlier. I've too many ghci's open, and just recently cleaned out my ~/.cabal from old versions of xmonad and rebuilt clean with the infixr. So must have had wrong versions of something loaded. On the bright side, the counterexamples I needlessly dragged out of you clearly demonstrate how much cleaner is the properly defined !> in comparison with leaving it as is. thanks, Gwern. -- wmw
