Hi guys,
Any ideas how to integrate Haskell into other software as scripting engine?
Similarly to Python in Blender or GIMP or to JavaScript in the products from
Adobe. Which possibilities we have?
Cheers,
Alex.

Hi, All.
I needed to make a batch of edits to some input files after a big change in my program. Normally, one would choose some scripting language, but I can't bear to program in them. The nasty thing about using Haskell is that giving regexes as string constants sometime requires two levels of quoting. For instance. (mkRegex "\\\\\\\\") matches \\.
To get around that, I put the regexes in the head of a literate program and let the program gobble itself up. Works great! I think I'll always turn to Haskell for my scripting needs now.
I put the file in the Haskell Pastebin, if you would like to see it.
Cheers, David
