    Further document :type +v's role in analyzing -XTypeApplications in GHCi · b335f506
    Ryan Scott authored
    Summary:
    The section on `-XTypeApplications` in the users' guide isn't terribly
    clear on how to view the visibility of a function type signature's type
    variables in GHCi properly (i.e., using the `:type +v` GHCi command). This
    adds some more exposition that demonstrates how to use `:type +v` (and why you
    don't want to use `:type`).
    
    Fixes #13401.
