---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Pepe Gallardo Date: 2009/3/25 Subject: Re: [Haskell-cafe] Re: ANNOUNCE: WinGhci, a GUI for GHCI on Windows To: "Benjamin L.Russell" Hi Benjamin*,* ** The only requirement to run WinGhci is to have GHC installed and to have GHC bin directory on your path. The way to start the application is by executing winghci.exe. Install.exe is an small program that associates .hs files with WinGhci (it should be run from the same directory where WinGhci is installed). Note that this association is optional. I have added a wiki page on this. 2009/3/23 Benjamin L.Russell

Just another couple of thoughts for possible additional improvement:

1. It would be even nicer if WinGhci added a menu entry to the "Start" menu automatically, as WinHugs does.

2. For the proposed menu entry, it would also probably be a good idea if WinGhci added a folder for that menu entry, and included a link to a "README" file in there, as WinHugs does also.

3. In order to distinguish WinGhci from GHCi, it might also be helpful if WinGhci had a different icon; the current WinGhci icon is identical to the one for GHCi (perhaps use the forthcoming official Haskell logo here?).

WinGhci icon is different (although quite similar) from GHCi icon, at least for medium to large icon sizes.

Just my two cents for now....
