Literate program implementing text editor
Hi all, I wanted to embark on a Haskell program that implements a simple text editor. Before doing so, however, I thought that I should ask: Does anyone know of a literate Haskell program already in existence that does the job? Eric M.

I don't know about simple, but there is Yi and once upon a time it was simple before everyone added lots of features to it. It's probably not literate Haskell though. Duncan

I've found it very hard to compile Yi, at least using the stock Haskell packages that come with my Ubuntu system. For starters, it requires GHC 6.8.3. The latest milestone release (M3) is quite old already. Does anyone know when M4 is planned to come out? And will it require a bleeding edge Haskell environment like the development version? Niels
