[Haskell-cafe] question automatic indentation (and so on)

Hi,

on a related note: At HaL8 I was wondering how well Haskell would be
suited for a workflow similar to what the go programmers do: Do not
worry about code layout, but let the computer handle it! For more
rationale and examples see
http://golang.org/doc/effective_go.html#formatting

While everyone has his own style and preferences, as soon as multiple
programmers work on the same code, a consistently enforced formatting
would probably help here a lot. Also, I would be happy to give up some
bikeshedding^Wformatting freedom for not having to worry about this
aspect.

I found https://github.com/jaspervdj/stylish-haskell/ (found via
http://stackoverflow.com/q/6870148/946226) which formats just some very
few aspects of Haskell. Does anyone have a more complete solution? Or is
interested in creating one?

Greetings,
Joachim
