+*hugs98-12.2000 (24 Apr 2002)
+
+  24 Apr 2002; Karl Trygve Kalleberg <karltk@gentoo.org> hugs98-12.2000.ebuild files/digest-hugs98-12.2002 :
+  
+  Hugs 98 is a functional programming system based on Haskell 98, the de facto
+  standard for non-strict functional programming languages. Hugs 98 provides 
+  an almost complete implementation of Haskell 98, including:
+
+    * Lazy evaluation, higher order functions, and pattern matching.
+    * A wide range of built-in types, from characters to bignums, and lists to
+      functions, with comprehensive facilities for defining new datatypes and
+      type synonyms.
+    * An advanced polymorphic type system with type and constructor class 
+      overloading.
+    * All of the features of the Haskell 98 expression and pattern syntax 
+      including lambda, case, conditional and let expressions, list 
+      comprehensions, do-notation, operator sections, and wildcard, 
+      irrefutable and `as' patterns.
+    * An implementation of the main Haskell 98 primitives for monadic I/O, 
+      with support for simple interactive programs, access to text files, 
+      handle-based I/O, and exception handling.
+    * An almost complete implementation of the Haskell module system. Hugs 98 
+      also supports a number of advanced and experimental extensions including
+      multi-parameter classes, extensible records, rank-2 polymorphism, 
+      existentials, scoped type variables, and restricted type synonyms.
