Hi Henning,

To install: cabal update && cabal install hlint

Fails for me, because of the base-4 dependency. - I'm still using GHC-6.8.2.
Can HLint suggest view-pattern-free expressions, such that the program also
runs on GHC-6.8 ?  :-)

HLint is written using view-patterns so requires GHC 6.10 to compile
it. After you have it compiled its just a standard Haskell binary, so
can be run on any Haskell code and will never suggest view-patterns
anyway.

My question was, whether HLint can help translating HLint to code without view patterns.
