Thanks to all who responded about the benefits of using Cabal. After trying out Bulat's Streams library, I thought I would download ByteString (aka FPS) to compare the wc demos. To compile something using Streams, I need to use a -i flag (thanks Bulat). When I followed the README that comes with ByteString, I get this:
% ./Setup.hs install Installing: /f/g/lib/fps-0.7 & /f/g/bin fps-0.7... *** Exception: /f: createDirectory: permission denied (Permission denied) I don't have root on this machine, and it's not obvious (to me) how to specify that everything should be installed locally. Any suggestions?
