Notes on Windows user experience

[Erik Charlebois]

WinHugs looks like a good starting point. Ultimately though, the more
features you add the more it starts to look like an IDE. Terminal-based
REPLs work on UNIX because the UNIX shell IS the IDE. On Windows, I'd argue
the right solution is to redo Visual Haskell on the VS2010 SDK (the
extensibility APIs are all going managed), replicating the F# experience as
much as possible.
