How was that with Haskell and Unicode???
While up to ghc-6.4.2 the following function worked it now doesn't compile:
isSpezGermanChar :: Char -> Bool
isSpezGermanChar 'ä' = True
isSpezGermanChar 'ö' = True
isSpezGermanChar 'ü' = True
isSpezGermanChar 'Ä' = True
isSpezGermanChar 'Ö' = True
isSpezGermanChar 'Ü' = True
isSpezGermanChar 'ß' = True
isSpezGermanChar _ = False
(For those of you who will only read garbage it are/were some letters from
the german alphabet.)
I hoped we move forward to easier internationalization.
Any ideas what to do now? (I would like to keep the code readable and not
use '\220' and so on.
Thanks,
Andreas
