Month in haskell mode May 2015

Mon Jun 1 18:02:40 BST 2015

Welcome Haskell Mode users,

Haskell Mode progress report for May 2015. For previous issue see April 2015
<https://github.com/haskell/haskell-mode/wiki/Month-in-haskell-mode-April-2015>
.

<https://github.com/haskell/haskell-mode/wiki/Month-in-haskell-mode-May-2015#what-is-haskell-mode>What
is Haskell Mode?

Haskell Mode is an umbrella project for multiple Emacs tools for Haskell
development. Haskell Mode is an open source project developed by a group of
volunteers. For more information see https://github.com/haskell/haskell-mode
.

developments

Haskell Mode has a new logo designed by Kristof Bastiaensen. Documentation
in HTML <http://haskell.github.io/haskell-mode/manual/latest/> looks much
better. Presentation mode received a lot of improvements. Code jumping
supports multiple buffers. Hasktags can be used on Windows. Syntax
highlighting shows quasiquotes as strings. Haskell indentation had a couple
of bugs fixed.

ghc-mod <https://github.com/kazu-yamamoto/ghc-mod> officially depends on
haskell-mode.

There was also the usual stream of backward and forward compatibility
fixes, code cleanup, regression tests, plugged holes, usability and
efficiency improvements.

project focus

Current project focus
<https://github.com/haskell/haskell-mode/wiki/Project-focus> continues to
be lowering the entry barrier for new users, new issue reporters and first
time contributors.

Goal: 100 haskell-mode contributors.

A 'contributor' is measured according to github stats
<https://github.com/haskell/haskell-mode/graphs/contributors>.

Current status is 89/100.
