[Haskell-cafe] Announce: ghc-core, command line pager for reading GHC Core

[Don Stewart]

Just a quick announcement, I've uploaded to hackage 'ghc-core' , a
wrapper over ghc for displaying the optimised core and assembly language 
ghc produces from your programs.

The code is colourised by hscolour, and displayed in a pager, git-log style.

This will be useful for those who like looking at optimised Haskell.

You can quickly get an idea of what kind of core and assembly your code
is turning into, and the effect of various flags on the result.

Usage:

   $ ghc-core Foo.hs
   $ ghc-core Foo.hs -optc-O2 -fvia-C
