+One of the important setting you should customize is the @code{haskell-mode-hook} variable (@pxref{Hooks,,, emacs}) which gets run right after the @code{haskell-mode} major mode is initialized for a buffer. You can customize @code{haskell-mode-hook} by @kbd{M-x customize-variable @key{RET} haskell-mode-hook}. It's highly recommended you set up indentation to match to match your preferences, @xref{Indentation}.

+Three Haskell indentation schemes are included in Haskell mode:
+
+@ftable @code
+
+@item turn-on-haskell-simple-indent
+
+A very simple indentation scheme; In this scheme, @key{TAB} will now move the cursor to the next indent point in the previous nonblank line.  An indent point is a non-whitespace character following whitespace.
+
+@item turn-on-haskell-indent
+
+Intelligent semi-automatic indentation for Haskell's layout rule.  The basic idea is to have @key{TAB} cycle through possibilities indentation points based on some clever heuristics.
+
+The rationale and the implementation principles are described in more detail the article @cite{Dynamic tabbing for automatic indentation with the layout rule} published in the Journal of Functional Programming 8.5 (1998).
+
+@item turn-on-haskell-indentation
+
+Improved variation of @code{turn-on-haskell-indent} indentation mode. Rebinds @key{RET} and @key{DEL}, so that indentations can be set and deleted as if they were real tabs.
+
+@end ftable
+
+To enable one of these three mutually exclusive indentation schemes, you just need call one (and only one!) of the `turn-on-*' commands while in the buffer you want the indentation scheme to be activated for.
+
+The recommended way is to add one of @code{turn-on-*} commands to @code{haskell-mode-hook}. This can be done either by using @kbd{M-x customize-variable @key{RET} haskell-mode-hook} which provides a convenient user interface or by adding @emph{one} the following three lines to your @file{.emacs} file:
+
+@example
+(add-hook 'haskell-mode-hook 'turn-on-haskell-simple-indent)
+(add-hook 'haskell-mode-hook 'turn-on-haskell-indent)
+(add-hook 'haskell-mode-hook 'turn-on-haskell-indentation)
