I agree with Erik. It makes more sense to bind to a recognised library, so that the developer effort isn't wasted duplicating complex functionality. Unless there's a serious robustness/safety/functionality argument to be made for doing it purely in Haskell, just write a binding instead, and move on to problems we can better apply Haskell's strengths to. -- Don _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
