#   NIX_GHCPKG

# instead of to the pristine GHC package, which doesn't know any of the
# additional libraries.

# A good way to import the environment set by the wrapper below into
# your shell is to add the following snippet to your ~/.bashrc:
#
#   if [ -e ~/.nix-profile/bin/ghc ]; then
#     eval $(grep export ~/.nix-profile/bin/ghc)
