+haskell-HTTP (A Haskell library for client-side HTTP)
+
+The HTTP package supports client-side web programming in Haskell.
+It lets you set up HTTP connections, transmitting requests and
+processing the responses coming back, all from within the comforts
+of Haskell.
+
+This requires haskell-network.
+
+When uninstalling, run this command to unregister the package from the ghc
+package database:   ghc-pkg unregister HTTP

+# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
+# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.  Line
+# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
+# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.  You must
+# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct.  It's also
+# customary to leave one space after the ':'.
