This script may even simplify testing of large code bases:

After making it executable you can run it as shell script and pass  
names of Haskell files -- (something like) this will check all Haskell  
files (literate or not) in your home directory:

    find ~ -name "*hs" | xargs parse-haskell.lhs

Cheers,
Sebastian
