Hi Henry, Picking and choosing some easy questions to answer (I've very slightly updated http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/WxHaskell/Mac too)

Have you considered adopting some sort of package management/installation software like Homebrew or MacPorts?

Would this be better? I think the basic story is that wxHaskell 0.13 is easier for Windows, and 0.90 for Mac. You need it for 64 bit GHC, and it works fine with 32 bit, so rather than struggle to correctly maintain two sets of install instructions, we just went with the latter. -- Eric Kow <http://erickow.com>
