.TH HADDOCK 1 "July 2010" "Haddock, version 2.6.1" "Haddock documentation generator"

.SH NAME
haddock \- documentation tool for annotated Haskell source code

.SH SYNOPSIS
.B haddock
.RI [ options ] " file" ...

.SH DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the
.B haddock
command.
Extensive documentation is available in various other formats including DVI,
PostScript and HTML; see below.

.PP
.I file
is a filename containing a Haskell source module.
All the modules specified on the command line will be processed together.
When one module refers to an entity in another module being processed, the
documentation will link directly to that entity.

Entities that cannot be found, for example because they are in a module that
is not being processed as part of the current batch, simply will not be
hyperlinked in the generated documentation.
.B haddock
will emit warnings listing all the identifiers it could not resolve.

The modules should not be mutually recursive, as
.B haddock
does not like swimming in circles.

.SH OPTIONS
The programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long
options starting with two dashes (`--').
A summary of options is included below.
For a complete description, see the other documentation.
