PackageImports

Allow imports to be qualified by the package name that the module is intended to be imported from, e.g.

 import "network" Network.Socket

NewQualifiedOperators
PostfixOperators
QuasiQuotes
TransformListComp
ViewPatterns
XmlSyntaxAllow concrete XML syntax to be used in expressions and patterns, as per the Haskell Server Pages extension language: http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/HSP. The ideas behind it are discussed in the paper Haskell Server Pages through Dynamic Loading by Niklas Broberg, from Haskell Workshop '05.
RegularPatternsAllow regular pattern matching over lists, as discussed in the paper Regular Expression Patterns by Niklas Broberg, Andreas Farre and Josef Svenningsson, from ICFP '04.
UnknownExtension String
show/hide Instances
knownExtensions :: [Extension]
deprecatedExtensions :: [(Extension, Maybe Extension)]
Extensions that have been deprecated, possibly paired with another extension that replaces it.
