a very simple question from a Haskell learner. I am working through Yet Another Haskell Tutorial and I am stuck on a simple syntax practice. The code given below: When I copy and paste it (from pdf) and then adjust the indentation it works fine, but when I type it out into an editor (in my case Notepad++) then it throws the following error:
Guess.hs:8:9: parse error on input ´hSetBuffering´
I made sure that I did not mix tabs and whitespaces (4 whitespaces) and I did not find a typo in the book. I am sure it is a very simple mistake so thanks for any input.

Here is the code:
module Main
where
import IO
import Random
main = do
hSetBuffering stdin LineBuffering
num <- randomRIO (1::Int, 100)
putStrLn "I'm thinking of a number between 1 and 100"
doGuessing num
doGuessing num = do
putStrLn "Enter your guess:"
guess <- getLine
let guessNum = read guess
if guessNum < num

doGuessing num
else if read guess > num
then do putStrLn "Too high!"
doGuessing num
else do putStrLn "You Win!"
There's no syntax error that I can see, or reproduce:
$ ghci A.hs

Ok, modules loaded: Main.
which means it is probably tabs. Did you insert a tab somewhere? And then use 4 spaces for indenting? Tabs are in general a bad idea in Haskell, as they lead to unintentional, and unintelligible, syntax errors.
