ghc VS vim-multiple-cursors

of course it does! what else would you call something like chicken scheme [https://call-cc.org/], ats [https://ats-lang.sourceforge.net/], or ghc [https://www.haskell.org/ghc/]? they are not "scripts", they are full-blown compilers that happen to use C as their compilation target, and then leverage C compilers to generate code for a variety of architecures. it's a very sensible way to do things.

Agree about Haskell... as far as I'm aware there is actually no declarative/easily-readable definition of the Haskell syntax that is also complete, especially when it comes to the indentation rules, and the syntax is basically defined by the very (ironically) imperatively-defined GHC parser[0].

I prefer a syntax like in Pure[1], where the ambiguous, hard to parse indentation-based syntax is replaced by explicit semicolons (Yeah, you can use braces/semicolons in Haskell as well, but most code doesn't).

GHC, the main Haskell compiler

GHCi, version 9.6.3: https://www.haskell.org/ghc/ :? for help Loaded GHCi configuration from /Users/daniel/.ghci ghci> :{ | split :: Float -> [Int] | split value = map(read .

GHC is hosted on Gitlab, the Github repo is just a mirror. So money.

Depending on who you ask, a programming language can be different things. If you ask the Haskell community, many will tell you that the language is the Haskell specification, and that what currently is being used is not Haskell itself, but an extension of Haskell that is supported by the GHC compiler. Similar to the C language, a programming language would be a specification.

In case you want to select multiple variables and change those all at once, you can check out https://github.com/terryma/vim-multiple-cursors.

You want something like this plugin I'm guessing. My use doesn't need that so I've never used it before.

To be precise I'm talking about something like this plugin does

By the way this is probably my favorite nvim plugin simply because it solves part of this problem https://github.com/terryma/vim-multiple-cursors. However it doesnt help with the more complex examples, like the one I mentioned above.

There's a brilliant plugin that emulates sublime's way of doing it. https://github.com/terryma/vim-multiple-cursors There's probably a way to do it using vim's default behaivour but this is easy and it works well for me.
