As for the portability of the my graphics code, I can just say it's GTK+, using Glade XML files, Cairo and SVG on top of Cairo. All of this is supposed to work fine on Windows, if that's what you were asking. I'm not sure about OS X but I think it could also work there. My primary target is UNIX.
The SVG cairo stuff does build and work on Windows. I didn't include it in the standard build of the installer since it depends on rather more C libs and made the download a bit bigger than I'd have liked for such a small addition. So we could do another build with that in. Deploying Gtk+ apps on windows is pretty easy, I'm going to write a bit about how to it some time, but in the mean time here's one I prepared earlier: http://haskell.org/~duncan/gtk2hs/LSystemSetup.exe Users don't need GHC or Gtk+ installed, you just bundle all the .dlls and the download isn't too big I think (3.5M compressed installer for a 1Mb GHC-built .exe + all the Gtk+ dlls). I've got pre-prepared bundles of gtk+ .dlls that you can use when building an installer (and another bundle incuding the other header files and stuff needed to build Gtk2Hs from source): http://haskell.org/gtk2hs/win32/ Duncan
