FilePath is indeed quite nice. You might also want to look at System.Path and its submodules in MissingH (API docs at [1]). I've got some stuff that FilePath doesn't, namely making paths absolute, wildcard matching/globbing, and also a function that converts a POSIX wildcard into a regexp. HSH makes use of both FilePath and MissingH for its ShellEquivs module, and has some new code in there too. -- John [1] http://software.complete.org/missingh/static/doc/ _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
