Thanks for your reply Stefan. When I look for cairo bindings for Haskell I find several different ones. Is there any one considered "the best" or most current? It does seem like a suitable combination. Den 4 okt. 2017 12:49 em skrev "Stefan Risberg" : Wouldn't pango with Cairo be good combination? On 4 Oct 2017 10:53 AM, "Jona Ekenberg" wrote:

Dear mailing list,

I want to create a text editor, preferably using open gl to render text. Are there any easy to use libraries for this? I like the gloss library, but the functions for rendering text seems quite basic. I could add upon this, but I figured I should ask here first; are there any existing libraries suitable for rendering text?

Kind regards, Jona

Thanks, I will try these out. 2017-10-04 15:32 GMT+02:00 Stefan Risberg :

You have Cairo and gi-cairo, I think that gi-cairo are autogenerated and from my experience a bit of a pain to set up.

It also depends on if you use stack, cabal or nix of course for your project. But I think both are mostly equal
