lhs2TeX

lhs2TeX is a preprocessor to generate LaTeX code from literate Haskell sources. It is released under the GPL.

lhs2TeX includes the following features:

Different styles to process your source file: for instance, "tt" style uses a monospaced font for the code while still allowing you to highlight keywords etc, whereas "poly" style uses proportional fonts for identifiers, handles indentation nicely, is able to replace binary operators by mathematical symbols and take care of complex horizontal alignments.

Formatting directives, which let you customize the way certain tokens in the source code should appear in the processed output.

A liberal parser that can handle most of the language extensions; you don't have to restrict yourself to Haskell 98.

Preprocessor-style conditionals that allow you to generate different versions of a document from a single source file (for instance, a paper and a presentation).

Active documents: you can use Haskell to generate parts of the document (useful for papers on Haskell).

New release: Version 1.15 (December 18, 2009)

This version fixes some small bugs. Most notably, a problem with line endings on Windows should be fixed now, and the version is compatible with version 4 of the base library. If you have a working version of lhs2tex-1.14 and are happy with it, you don't necessarily need to upgrade.
