[Nix-dev] ghc-mod + nix-shell?

[Richard Wallace]

I've been struggling to get this working.  I have ghc-mod installed, but it
fails to see the packages I have installed when I go into nix-shell.  If
you did get it working, could you post your .nix file somewhere so I (and
others) can take a look?

Thanks,
Rich
