[Haskell-cafe] Hint's setImports usage

[Michael Sloan]

Hello!

Try doing this first:

  loadModules ["My.Module"]

You may also need to set the "searchPath" - it defaults to the current
director.  Another good function to know about is "setTopLevelModules",
which is just like using ":load" in ghci - it imports everything in the
module, including its imports.  So, I often do:

  loadModules ["MyPrelude"]
  setTopLevelModules ["MyPrelude"]

And stick all of the things that I want to be in scope into "MyPrelude.hs".
