[Haskell-cafe] Getting library documentation for installed packages on Windows

[John Ky]

Thanks Jack,

I can get the documentation okay with:

cabal install --reinstall *<package-name>*


Now I'm getting into another problem.

I specifically wanted the documentation for the Network module as its
documentation is not included in the default Haskell Platform install.

I run:

cabal install --reinstall *network*


But get the error shown in this ticket:
http://trac.haskell.org/network/ticket/39

I believe the network package is already installed, and I only want the
documentation for it.

What should I do?

Cheers,

-John
