GHCI to external file

Question

I have a Haskell function which returns quite a large output. (In fact, beyond the console's buffer size.) Is there any way GHCI output can be automatically saved to an external txt file rather than simply displayed?

Answer 1

The result of the last command is bound to the variable it.

You can

writeFile "filename.txt" $ show it

or

writefile "filename.txt" $ show $ <statement>
