Re: [Haskell-cafe] whhaskell on osx 10.5

wxHaskell - Building - MacOS X 
(http://wxhaskell.sourceforge.net/building-macosx.html):

 Due to complicated MacOS X restrictions, graphical wxHaskell applications do 
 not work 
 directly when used from GHCi. Fortunately, Wolfgang Thaller has kindly 
 provided an 
 ingenious Haskell module that solves this problem. Just import the (compiled) 
 module 
 EnableGUI in your program and issue the following command to run main from 
 your GHCi 
 prompt:
 
  enableGUI  main

Is there any estimated date on getting graphical wxHaskell applications to work 
directly when used from GHCi?

 just running:

 will work fine on windows and linux, under mac os, I ran
 into issues
 with window focus and click events not firing. Upon 
 looking further,
 I found this page on the wxhaskell site:
 http://wxhaskell.sourceforge.net/building-macosx.html
 
 which explains the need to the macosx-app step in compiling
 a
 whhaskell app, and why I include it in my example. Hope
 this helps.

[Haskell-cafe] whhaskell on osx 10.5

2008-05-20 Thread Kirk Peterson
I had a difficult time getting wxhaskell installed and working on a
mac running os x 10.5. I did a quick write up of the process I got
working here:

http://necrobious.blogspot.com/2008/05/wxhaskell-go-go.html

Im pretty new to haskell, so if if you see anything that needs
correcting please let me know, hope this helps

It works, but it doesn't look right. The nice colory drop-like 
minimization/maximization buttons are missing, for example. At least, that's 
my experience using wxHaskell on the Mac (OS X 10.4).
