[Haskell-cafe] Announcing cross-platform implementation of Pan
Hi all, I'd like to announce a new cross-platform implementation of Conal Elliott's image synthesis language - Pan. For more information see: http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~sseefried/pan/ This is very much an alpha release of the software. I have only built and tested it on Mac OS X and Linux, although it has been tested on Windows by another. Features: * Uses Don Stewart's hs-plugins library to dynamically load and display effects. * Cross-platform. Uses Daan Leijen's wxHaskell and Sven Panne's HOpenGL libraries. * Uses the Haskell Cabal libraries. Builds with version released in GHC 6.4. Drawbacks: * Not as fully featured as the original. * Not as fast. Implemented directly in Haskell instead of generating C code.

[Haskell-cafe] Buddha and GHC 6.4
Has anyone gotten Buddha (now called plargleflarp http://www.cs.mu.oz.au/~bjpop/buddha/) do work with GHC 6.4? I'm getting ghc-6.4: unknown package: buddha Jim P.S. What happened to the old name? ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe

I'm getting ghc-6.4: unknown package: buddha Jim P.S. What happened to the old name? Hi Jim, Unfortunately I haven't had time to get buddha working with GHC 6.4. If you really need it I can have a look into it later this week (let me know how urgent it is). Otherwise it is best to stick with the previous stable release of GHC for the moment. Plargleflarp is a decoy. I started getting complaints about the name when the program was noticed by someone on a linux mailing list. The complaints have come from buddhists who don't like the use of the word. To stop the complaints I renamed every occurrence of buddha to plargleflarp on the webpage. So what will happen in the long term? As yet I don't know. I might rename the program when version 2.0 comes out, I might not. If you have any opinion then please let me know. Cheers, Bernie. ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
