Provide a way to search all packages #87

Open glasserc opened 9 years ago

Sometimes I'm looking for some functionality that might or might not even exist. I have no idea what package, if any, the functionality might live in, so it's impractical for me to search a package explicitly using "+pkgname". It would be cool if there were a way to do a "global" search that would find anything matching in any package.

Yep, I want this too... I need to do some technical bits first to get it working though.

Hoogle 5 searches all of Stackage by default, its in git and at http://hoogle.haskell.org/
