cabal new-repl: Pretty-print all GHCi output #92

Closed benjaminweb closed 3 years ago

benjaminweb commented 3 years ago

The README gives the instructions to pPrint GHCi output by default with stack. How is it done with cabal new-repl?

cabal new-repl --ghci-options "-interactive-print=Text.Pretty.Simple.pPrint" --package pretty-simple
cabal: unrecognized 'new-repl' option `--ghci-options'
unrecognized 'new-repl' option `-interactive-print=Text.Pretty.Simple.pPrint'

@benjaminweb I don't actually use cabal very much, but it looks like cabal new-repl (or, well, now just cabal repl) has a flag --repl-options. I imagine this is the same as stack's --ghci-options.

I'd really appreciate if you could figure this out and send a PR updating the README. I'm sure that would be helpful for other people!

cabal new-repl --repl-options "-interactive-print=Text.Pretty.Simple.pPrint" --package pretty-simple

does work for me. Will consider a PR.
