    Implement generalised list comprehensions · 67cb4091
    Simon Peyton Jones authored
      This patch implements generalised list comprehensions, as described in 
      the paper "Comprehensive comprehensions" (Peyton Jones & Wadler, Haskell
      Workshop 2007).  If you don't use the new comprehensions, nothing
      should change.
      
      The syntax is not exactly as in the paper; see the user manual entry 
      for details.
      
      You need an accompanying patch to the base library for this stuff 
      to work.
      
      The patch is the work of Max Bolingbroke [batterseapower@hotmail.com], 
      with some advice from Simon PJ.
