Do most people who work with haskell use emacs/vi/eclipse or something else??
Personal Note: I used gofer some 15 years ago. At that time I hacked up a emacs mode (I did not know of any then) along with some changes to gofer to have gofer inside emacs rather than vi inside gofer.
Things have got more exciting now -- just trying to catch up!!
[Note: My preferrred/default OS is debian-squeeze]
I’m using vim myself, but the Debian Haskell Team has packaged leksah and it is available in squeeze. If you have any problems with the packaging, we would like to hear about them.
(So far, we had zero feedback from leksah users on Debian, so I don’t know if there exist any)
Greetings, Joachim
I guess I am going to start with emacs -- since that seems to work (re Johan Tibell above). However I do have an issue regarding debian packaging. At first I installed ghc This brought in ghc6 ghc6-doc libbsd-dev libgmp3-dev libgmpxx4ldbl I also added haskell98-report haskell98-tutorial darcs Then I discovered haskell-platform. I was pleased to discover that the link took me directly to the squeeze repos so there is no version mismatch between haskell-platorm and squeeze. apt-getting haskell-platform gave me alex cabal-install happy haskell-platform libghc6-cgi-dev libghc6-deepseq-dev libghc6-glut-dev libghc6-haskell-src-dev libghc6-html-dev libghc6-http-dev libghc6-hunit-dev libghc6-network-dev libghc6-opengl-dev libghc6-parallel-dev libghc6-parsec2-dev libghc6-quickcheck2-dev libghc6-stm-dev libghc6-xhtml-dev However when trying to compile ghc from source I got an error that wanted ghc6-prof So I got that Looking around in synaptic (gui for apt) I find that there are a large number of libghc-somethings that I still have not got. So then the question: Whats the real point of the haskell-platform package -- if specific libraries have to be got separately?
