Buffering issue.

[Leon Smith]

I'm not sure this is a bug, or merely an undocumented feature.  :-)

Anyway,  putStr in GHC has different buffer semantics than putStr in Hugs.  
For example:

(GHCi 5.02)

Prelude> putStr "What is your name? " >> getLine
Leon
What is your name? 

Prelude> putStr "What is your name? \n" >> getLine
What is your name? 
Leon

(Hugs Feb-2001)

Prelude> putStr "What is your name?  " >> getLine
What is your name?  Leon

best,
