Morning Gentlemen, may I ask if anybody had any success using the Hugs Graphics Library with ghc? I did get it to compile and link, but it insists displaying most graphics in black on a black background which somewhat diminishes the viewing enjoyment. I'm using GreenCard 2.03 and ghc-5.02.2, compiling via the FFI (-target=ffi), since getting gc to generate ghc code (-target=ghc) doesn't work; or rather, it produces code which ghc doesn't like. And, yes I know about HOpenGL and other graphics libraries for ghc -- quick word why I want to do exactly this: we're using hugs for teaching, and the Hugs Graphics Library makes a nice addition to an introductory course in Haskell. I wanted to demonstrate that Haskell is fast enough to write wee games in (Asteroids, to be precise), if one is using a compiler. Thanks, --C.
