hoogle \- A Haskell API search engine.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B hoogle

.SH DESCRIPTION
Hoogle is a Haskell API search engine which allows you to search Haskell
libraries by either function name, or by approximate type signature.

Example searches:

.EX
    map
    (a -> b) -> [a] -> [b]
    Ord a => [a] -> [a]
    Data.Map.insert

The Hoogle manual (http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Hoogle) contains more
details, including further details on search queries, how to install Hoogle as
a command line application and how to integrate Hoogle with Firefox/Emacs/Vim
etc.
