+ C-&gt;Haskell assists in the development of Haskell bindings to C
+ libraries. It extracts interface information from C header
+ files and generates Haskell code with foreign imports and
+ marshaling. Unlike writing foreign imports by hand (or using
+ hsch2s), this ensures that C functions are imported with the
+ correct Haskell types.
