Hi Jason, Just as a short follow-up on the question of installers: On 27/06/06, Jason Dagit wrote:

My applications are mainly for internal use at my workplace, and come with Windows installers (I use Inno setup with wxHaskell - never managed to make it work with GTK2, so these applications were delivered as zip files which just had to be unzipped in a certain place).

Do you have any advice about using Inno with haskell? Have you tried wix at all? http://sourceforge.net/projects/wix/

I haven't looked at Wix. Inno is particularly straightforward as it has a 'wizard' interface (the script wizard). The basic steps (for wxHaskell) are: On screen 1: add application name, version, publisher and website (if applicable) On screen 2: add application install base directory and directory name. Decide if user can change these or not. On screen 3: add main application executable. Add any other files/directories used (In my case, I typically have only the main .exe file, wxmsw24.dll, wxc-msw2.4.2-0.9.4.dll and, possibly, a bitmaps directory and/or help files). On screen 4: Decide where in the start menu you will put the application. On screen 5: Any application documentation: license, pre-install readme, post-install readme. On screen 6: Define any language support details. On screen 7: Define setup compiler output directory, output filename, any icon to be used and (optionally) a password. That's it. The wizard generally produces all I need for a simple installer.

Maybe you have a developer blog I could read?

I don't. I fear that I would start full of good intentions, write a few posts and then find that I had no time... I'll try to share what I know via the wiki as Simon suggested (will be putting this installer stuff, suitably edited, in the wiki shortly). Regards Jeremy
