I just switched to OS X and was wondering if someone would like to share their setup. Install binaries from haskell.org or Mac Ports? Which emacs build? etc Johan

I use Aquamacs with the haskell mode from haskell.org. MacPorts
wasn't being useful with ghc, I downloaded binaries, and they work
fine.

Is there a nice way to install the binaries and get the dependencies
while still being able to easily uninstall the stuff (without a
package manager)? What are the dependencies?

MacPorts works fine here, and the maintainer, Gregory Wright, is very supportive. If it works for you, I really recommend MacPorts. The only downside are the lengthy compile times, but this is not a big deal, you can just leave it installing overnight. Carbon Emacs flavour here instead of Aqua, but for no reason in particular. I sweeten it with Haskell mode + shim. On 19/05/2007, at 20:27, Tom Harper wrote:

Ah, I'm glad you said that. I was wondering if some kind of bit rot was setting in to slow down my PowerBook. It actually took more than one night to build ghc on my 1.33GHz Powerbook. So be warned!

I use the MacPorts package of GHC and Aquamacs (with haskell-mode). It works quite nicely for me. Fink also seems to have a GHC package, in case you prefer it. Aaron On May 19, 2007, at 11:24 AM, Johan Tibell wrote:
