cabal sandbox support

[myme]

Now that cabal ships with sandbox support it would be great to have haskellmode detect sandboxes and launch ghci accordingly.

I'm not sure exactly which way is best to approach this, though. cabal repl is already available and launches ghci properly, which would work for type inspection etc. But I see that haskellmode invokes ghc without the interactive flag for tags and a few other things, which may not be as trivial to solve?

Perhaps getting some inspiration from haskell/haskell-mode/#198. A good start may be to invoke cabal repl rather than ghci when there's a .cabal file.

+1. I'm just trying to get started with haskellmode-vim and it seems pretty useless without this feature. Is there a workaround? Or are haskellmode-vim users just not using cabal sandboxes?

(Whoops, just realised this is only a mirror. Is there an issue tracker for the original project?)

I would like support for local haddock on cabal-sandboxes
