This library provides a quasiquoter for executing shell commands in Haskell, somewhat similar to Perl's backtick operator. Shell commands are IO actions, and they capture the command's standard output as a String result. You can also interpolate Haskell variables into a command. Documentation is hosted at http://hackage.haskell.org/package/shqq To build the documentation yourself, run $ cabal configure && cabal haddock --hyperlink-source This will produce HTML documentation under dist/doc/html/shqq
