There's no sic about it -- TkHaskell and TclHaskell are two (related
but) different libraries. :) .  I'd recommend TclHaskell as the more
versatile of the two.

Yup, this is 'cos they live on Chris Dornan's page -- he was author &
maintainer of the code, while I hacked together the documentation.

I've seen Meurig's code in action -- its very slick & stuctured, more
similar in style to Fran rather than TclHaskell (which I believe it uses
for implementation).  

Although I think Meurig's work will gain a big user base, I think
there's still space for a more lowlevel, quick'n'dirty library. 

It'd be a good idea to get together a proper definitve release of
T{k|cl}Haskell -- Keith once mailed me some patches, and there are
various versions in use here in Glasgow.

However, I'd like to de-nominate myself as archivist -- I've not used
either library in over a year now, and so am next to useless at
answering problems or maintaining the code. Plus I've got no time :(

volunteers?
