## Using the stable version

## Using the develop version
## Using the development version
You should install both Emacs front-end and binaries from this git repo. If you use the snapshot MELPA to install Emacs front-end, you would suffer from inconsistency between Emacs front-end and binaries.
The easiest way to hack on ghc-mod is compile it, then add `dist/build/ghc-mod`
and `dist/build/ghc-modi` to your `PATH` and add the `elisp/` directory to your
Emacs `load-path`.
Make sure you're not using the MELPA version of `ghc.el` otherwise you might get
all sorts of nasty conflicts.
