  + 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. +
  -
  -
  - base: the Prelude, - and a large collection of useful libraries.
  - haskell98: - Haskell 98 Standard Libraries.
  - network: - networking support libraries.
  - haskell-src: - manipulating Haskell source code.
  -
- (Old) Haskell Libraries - -
  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. - -
  Libraries which haven't moved yet, so are still only available from - here, include: the POSIX library, the Win32 library, HaXml, Readline, - and a few others. -
