Emacs/Installing haskell-mode
Where to get haskell-mode
The source for the package is currently hosted on the Haskell organization on Github. The installation procedure is documented there.
On Debian you can use your package manager :
$ apt-get install haskell-mode
Installation
Download and unpack the basic mode and modules into a suitable directory, e.g. ~/lib/emacs/haskell-mode/
where ~
stands for your home directory.
Assuming you have placed the basic mode haskell-mode.el
and the modules you want to use in the directory ~/lib/emacs/haskell-mode/
, add the following command to your init file (~/.emacs
):
(load "~/lib/emacs/haskell-mode/haskell-site-file")
adding the following lines according to which modules you want to use. They are all optional.
(add-hook 'haskell-mode-hook 'turn-on-haskell-doc-mode)
You should choose an indentation mode by uncommenting (remove the ";;") at the start of one of the lines. Note that the three indentation modules are mutually exclusive - add at most one. Note that the line of code for simple indentation is commented out (using a preceding ;) in preference for the more advanced indentation module.
