-This is a little output test suit for Haddock. To add a test: 
 
- 1 Create a module in the "tests" directory
- 2 Run runtests.hs
-   You should now have output/<modulename>.html but the test will always
-   pass since there is no reference output to compare with
- 3 To add reference output, do
-     runhaskell copy.hs <modulename>
+A testsuite for Haddock that uses the concept of "golden files" (compares
+output files against a set of reference files).

 You can pass extra options to haddock like so
