+.SH NAME
+GHC \- the Glasgow Haskell Compiler

+.SH SYNOPSIS

+my $started = 0;
+

+    print ".br\n" if $started;

+
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+This manual page documents briefly the
+.B ghc
+and
+.B ghci
+commands.
+Note that
+.B ghci
+is not yet available on all architectures.
+Extensive documentation is available in various other formats
+including DVI, PostScript and HTML; see below.
+
+.PP
+Each of GHC's command line options is classified as either
+.IR static " or " dynamic .
+A static flag may only be specified on the command line, whereas a
+dynamic flag may also be given in an \f(CROPTIONS\fP pragma in a
+source file or set from the GHCi command-line with \f(CR:set\fP.
+
+As a rule of thumb, all the language options are dynamic, as are the
+warning options and the debugging options.
+
+The rest are static, with the notable exceptions of
+.BR \-v ", " \-cpp ", " \-fasm ", " \-fvia\-C ", and " \-#include .
+The OPTIONS sections lists the status of each flag.
+
+.PP
+Common suffixes of file names for Haskell are:
+.TP
+.B .hs
+Haskell source code; preprocess, compile
+.TP
+.B .lhs
+literate Haskell source; unlit, preprocess, compile
+.TP
+.B .hi
+Interface file; contains information about exported
+symbols
+.TP
+.B .hc
+intermediate C files
+.TP
+.BI . x _o
+way
+.I x
+object files; common ways are:
+.BR p ", " u ", " s
+.TP
+.BI . x _hi
+way
+.I x
+interface files
