Yes, of course. I just hadn’t recognized that you had also mentioned Yampa, and wanted to point out that besides Conal’s stuff there are further approaches to reactive programming in Haskell. > […] > Gtk2HS can hardly be called pure functional programming can it? It is IO > and monads everywhere. Indeed. A functional approach to GUIs is nice but at the moment we don’t have anything that is suitable for solving real world problems (although this is being worked on). > […] > I haven't looked at Grapefruit yet (actually I don't like fruit, but I > like vegetables, so lucky me ;-). The working name for Grapefruit was Vegetables, by the way. ;-) > I will certainly do so. Any interesting links? The most interesting link is <http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Grapefruit> at the moment—since it’s the only one. ;-) Note that, in contrast to the last months, this page now links to an up-to-date API documentation. > Cheers, > Peter Best wishes, Wolfgang _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
