| 2024-11-14 19:47:49 +0100 | <geekosaur> | historically the entire shebang line after the interpreter name was passed as a single parameter |
| 2024-11-14 19:47:33 +0100 | <geekosaur> | the former |
| 2024-11-14 19:47:21 +0100 | <sm> | I think env requires -S on *bsd (& mac) to allow extra arguments after the executable, GNU/linux doesn't. Or vice versa. |
| 2024-11-14 19:47:11 +0100 | <geekosaur> | (but some systems that require it don't have it. then again I'm not sure how many people run Illumos) |
| 2024-11-14 19:46:56 +0100 | <shapr> | The benefit of writing blog posts is that I learn so much! |

| 2024-11-14 19:46:25 +0100 | <shapr> | What's env -S ? |
| 2024-11-14 19:45:52 +0100 | <sm> | ah you showed one. If more arguments are needed, some platforms require env -S |

| 2024-11-14 19:42:34 +0100 | <shapr> | I like to know all the bits around the edges! |

| 2024-11-14 19:41:53 +0100 | <sm> | sorry, I'm just giving the most negative (but real) case |
| 2024-11-14 19:41:40 +0100 | <sm> | (and, getting it working may require either some coding to update it, or installing a few gigabytes of old ghc and deps that may or may not run easily on your machine) |

| 2024-11-14 19:40:28 +0100 | <shapr> | Now that I know, I will mention this! |
| 2024-11-14 19:40:23 +0100 | <sm> | just because of ghc's evolution and tight/fragile dependencies between haskell packages |
| 2024-11-14 19:40:10 +0100 | <shapr> | oh, interesting |
| 2024-11-14 19:39:53 +0100 | <sm> | if you don't pin down ghc (& base) and any other deps your script uses, it's likely to break eventually (or possibly very soon), unlike normal shell scripts |
| 2024-11-14 19:39:42 +0100 | <shapr> | tell me more? |

| 2024-11-14 19:39:17 +0100 | <shapr> | uh, what is that issue? |
| 2024-11-14 19:39:01 +0100 | <sm> | Yeah. I hope you'll mention the issue of keeping it running beyond a single ghc release at least. Maybe another post :) |
| 2024-11-14 19:38:56 +0100 | <shapr> | tempting, but for now I'm gonna cover "how to run a Haskell source file like it's a shell script" |
| 2024-11-14 19:38:41 +0100 | <shapr> | That makes the subject larger than I can put into a single blog post |
| 2024-11-14 19:37:52 +0100 | <sm> | https://chrisdone.github.io/hell is the most recent and a particularly interesting one IMHO |
| 2024-11-14 19:37:32 +0100 | <sm> | there have been lots of attempts to bridge haskell and scripting - https://hackage.haskell.org/packages/search?terms=shell probably includes some of them (sorry) |
| 2024-11-14 19:36:57 +0100 | <sm> | stack scripts and cabal scripts are important for using deps / reproducibility / sharing, already mentioned by tomsmeding |
| 2024-11-14 19:36:09 +0100 | <shapr> | oh no, what else am I missing? |
| 2024-11-14 19:35:30 +0100 | <sm> | shapr: quite a bit, I must tell you :) |
| 2024-11-14 19:32:59 +0100 | <shapr> | I'll add that as well |
| 2024-11-14 19:30:24 +0100 | <tomsmeding> | similarly https://docs.haskellstack.org/en/stable/topics/scripts/ |
| 2024-11-14 19:29:38 +0100 | <shapr> | tomsmeding: thank you! |

| 2024-11-14 19:26:17 +0100 | <shapr> | I'm writing a small blog post about using Haskell for "shell scripting", or maybe "how to run a Haskell source file" |
