Howdy, I am trying to set up GHC with wxHaskell and run a couple of samples in Win2K Professional. I have GHC in c:\Program Files\ghc-6.2.1\ and wxHaskell in c:\Program Files\wxhaskell-0,8\ The setup batch file for wxHaskell could not register the packages, or copy the DLL to the system32 directory. I manually copied the DLL, and tried to register the packages with GHC. I set the PATH environment variable to include the GHC directory. I am typing the following commands and the command prompt: ghc-pkg -u -i "c:\progra~1\wxhaskell-0.8\bin\wxcore.pkg" ghc-pkg -u -i "c:\progra~1\wxhaskell-0.8\bin\wx.pkg" Each time, I get an error 'Unable to expand variable "wxhlibdir"' when the program is trying to expand embedded variables. I went ahead and put GHC in my program file directory because I did not intend to use cygwin (which I understand has a problem with spaces in file/dir names). Usually, however, using "Progra~1" instead of "Program Files" allows programs which don't like spaces to run. Could this be the problem? Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong? Thank you, -- Geoff C
