[Haskell-cafe] literate Haskell newbie question

[Jefferson Heard]

ghc handles lhs files based on their extension.  You don't need to translate 
it to a different format.  If you want to translate > notation lhs to hs on 
your own (I dunno why, just if you did), the sed/grep combo 

cat foo.lhs | grep -e "^>" | sed "s/^> //"

would work just fine.
