Re: [Haskell-cafe] implementing a text editor swap file

Says posix only. But googling for it brought up System.IO.MMap, which does seem to be cross-platform. martin On Tue, Jan 17, 2012 at 5:46 PM, Matthew Farkas-Dyck wrote:

I'm writing a gtk2hs-based text editor, and would like to implement continuous (swap-file based) autosave the way vim and emacs do it. Any suggestions for how to implement this in a cross-platform manner?

Also, is there a library that returns standard config file locations on a per-platform basis?
