I am pleased to announce version 0.14.10 of Gtk+HS, the Haskell binding for the GUI toolkit GTK+. This release features a range of new widgets over the previous release and supports the use of the library as a GHC package.
Gtk+HS includes code contributions from many people. See <http://cvs.gnome.org/lxr/source/gtk%2bhs/AUTHORS> for details. The underlying toolkit, GTK+, implements a mature, high-end widget set, which forms the basis of the Gnome desktop environment, and is used in cutting-edge open source applications, such as the Gimp, Gnumeric, and Abiword. Gnome (and, thus, GTK+) is not only one of the two main desktop environments for Linux, but has also been selected by Sun as the new standard desktop for Solaris. Moreover, there is a port of GTK+ available for Win32. The present distribution includes an example application (The Boolean Editor) that demonstrates how GTK+ can be used from Haskell. It illustrates concepts, such as callbacks, the handling of global GUI state, and synchronisation between the different windows of an application. The code is available directly from the Web page without need to download the complete release. More information (including screenshots!) as well as source and binary packages are available from http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~chak/haskell/gtk/ Happy Hacking!
