funny bold ouput in GHCI

[Simon Peyton-Jones]

Curious.  Doesn't happen here.  We're unlikely to fix this unless
someone knows what is going on and can tell us...

| Subject: funny bold ouput in GHCI
| 
| Using GHCI 5.04.2, in some interpreter output (including at least
error
| messages and types displayed by :t), the '>' character of a '->'
lexeme
| appears in bold on my terminal.  For example:
| 
| *Data> :t execProgram
| FilePath
| -> [String]
|    -> Maybe [(String, String)]
|       -> Bool -> Maybe FilePath -> [(Fd, Fdx)] -> DB ()
| 
| In the above, though it obviously doesn't show here, each '>'
character
| (except the first!?) shows as bold.  Note that the '-' characters of
the
| '->' lexemes do not show as bold.  I find all of this very peculiar,
| albeit innocuous.
