When working on xmonad, we're trying to produce very clean, correct
code -- a window manager that just works. To do this, we're looking to
employ more static checking tools to the code base. Currently we use:
* QuickCheck (checks high level window manager behaviour)
* Catch (Neil's pattern match verifier, caught a couple of bugs)
* ghc -Wall
One other tool we're considering:
* HPC. check program coverage of the test suite.
But I suspect that there's an awful lot of other small checkers of
various kinds out there.
So:
* Do you know of some other cool code checking tool for Haskell?
* That could be used on xmonad (xmonad.org) to reduce code smell?
If so, let us know! :-)

P.S. Perhaps it is time for a wiki page documenting the available
extended static checking tools for Haskell.
