The source is +organized into _one_ level of directories, and the literate Haskell +source files sit in those directories (i.e., */*.lhs). + +The only "real" subdirectory is the tests/ directory [NB: not +distributed normally, but available to gluttons for punishment], which +includes some tests that we use to make sure we're not going +backwards. The subdirs of the test directory "match" the subdirs of +the main source directory; e.g., the desugarer is in subdir deSugar/, +and the tests for the desugarer are in tests/deSugar/. |
