Hoogle has plenty of bugs, consider them features until they are fixed :) To report a bug either email me or just add it to this list. I am slowly moving to a bug tracker, so you can enter them there if you want.
Bad Searches
- (a -> b) -> ([a] -> [b]) -- should find map
- @hoogle Data.IntMap.IntMap a -> [a] -- badly kills the module names
- @hoogle -- , gives copyright message (consequence of argument parsing in command line)
- Either, should find Left and Right
- @hoogle (\=), bracket does not parse
- ?hoogle (<<), goes crazy
- ThreadID -> IO (), does not find killThread :: ThreadId -> IO () (note Id vs ID)
Bad UI
- hoogle is a bit stingey with the space limit on the module name, for many modules it cuts them off with "...", i.e. ParseError
Bad Ordering
- Ptr a -> IO a [peek should be first]
- Foreign.Storable.peekByteOff :: Storable a => Ptr b -> Int -> IO a
- Foreign.Storable.peek :: Storable a => Ptr a -> IO a
