There is also an old project to port nhc98 to PalmOS -- not sure if it is still active, or how far they got. AFAIK, nothing was ever released.
Yes, we were working on this at Macquarie Uni. The project has suffered a bit from a lack of resources. A while back we shifted our attention from nhc to yhc, since that seems to be a more likely base for success.
We have a preliminary port of the yhc runtime which a student developed. It runs some simple programs on Palm OS, but it needs work to be usable by others.
This is really cool. I'd love to write some Haskell for Palm. :)
I expect to find time to devote to this later in the year, although we will also be evaluating whether putting effort into Palm OS is worth it any more, given its uncertain future.
Yeah. This is actually a problem. Palm OS is rather doomed to be obsolete and Pocket PC is probably better target. Anyway, does anyone else experience a feeling that at the time of buying yourself new gadget you are already in "deprecated zone"? ;) Cheers, Radek. -- Codeside: http://codeside.org/ Przedszkole Miejskie nr 86 w Lodzi: http://www.pm86.pl/
