Requested Feature: Add source code searchability #185

Open bkushigian opened 8 years ago

bkushigian commented 8 years ago

Hi Neil, it would be a neat feature to have a source code lookup option in Hoogle. I'm going to start hacking on it and see if I can get a working example. I'll be going through your code/slides/papers to see how you extract data and see if I can't generalize that to fetch Package source code.

I extract data from haddock --hoogle, which generates a .txt file. If you can find an easy generalisation for source code that would be great.
