[Haskell] ANN: Takusen 0.5

2006-07-14 Thread Alistair Bayley
Oleg and I are pleased to announce the release of a new version of Takusen (it's been a while; so long that we don't remember the last version number we used). The most significant code change is a new internal design (courtesy of Oleg) which gives better separation of concerns like statement pre

[Haskell] ANN: System.FilePath 0.9

2006-07-14 Thread Neil Mitchell
Hi, I have written a System.FilePath module in part based on the one in Yhc, and in part based on the one in Cabal (thanks to Lemmih). The aim is to try and get this module into the base package, as FilePath's are something many programs use, but its all too easy to hack up a little function that

[Haskell] What would Haskell middleware look like?

2006-07-14 Thread Paul Johnson
