-Welcome to GHC! - -
This is the top of the GHC documentation tree, where you will find -links to all the supplied documentation about GHC and its -libraries.
- -The User's Guide has all you need to know about using GHC: - command line options, language extensions, GHCi, etc. -

Hierarchical Libraries - -
GHC comes with a large number of libraries, arranged - hierarchically. The libraries are divided into packages - - to use a package of libraries from GHC or GHCi just add the flag - -package <name> to the command line, where - <name> is the name of the package (see the - section on packages in the User's Guide for more information). The - base and haskell98 packages are always available, - so you don't need to use the -package flag to get these. - -

Previous versions of GHC (before version 5.04) came with a suite - of libraries known as hslibs, aka the Hugs-GHC libraries. - As we are in the process of moving towards using hierarchical - libraries for everything, many of these libraries have moved over to - the new packages in the hierarchical libraries above. We still - provide the old hslibs libraries for backwards compatibility - and also for those libraries which have yet to move into the - hierarchy. For libraries which have moved, the documentation - contains a pointer to the location in the new libraries. -
