Hi
Is there any really cross-platform GUI library for Haskell?
Gtk2Hs is good (I suppose), but it requires X. OK, I have X, but it's not "native" on my Mac; some Mac users don't install it and almost all Mac users don't always run it.
On Windows, Gtk2hs is not as native as wxHaskell, but is the best GUI toolkit available. On Windows, there is no requirement to have X installed. The Gtk2hs developers (or more specifically Duncan) have shown a continuing desire to make Gtk2hs more Windows friendly, even to the point of filing Gtk bugs and tracking their progress. I'm sure having made Mac friendly noises, they will come rushing to your aid :-)
A quick google reveals two different attempts to make a native OSX Gtk + port; one appears moribund and the other vapor. :( -- brandon s. allbery [solaris,freebsd,perl,pugs,haskell] allbery@kf8nh.com system administrator [openafs,heimdal,too many hats] allbery@ece.cmu.edu electrical and computer engineering, carnegie mellon university KF8NH
