I often use Haskell demos in teaching algorithms. The problem is that this does not integrate well with the rest of the material, e.g. lecture notes or slides in PDF or HTML. I'd like to integrate explanations and demos and explorative changes to algorithms. This needs better support.
Is there something like a Hugs plugin for Netscape?
Is DVI OK? The Active-DVI package http://pauillac.inria.fr/activedvi/ allows embedding programs into DVI files, along with a host of other features for presentations (effects, links, transitions, ...). If you look at the demo included with the distribution you will see a slide with a copy of the Ocaml interpreter running inside a DVI page. Files using ActiveDVI specials are still viewable with, for example, xdvi, but of course most of the features are absent or mangled. -- Frank Atanassow, Information & Computing Sciences, Utrecht University Padualaan 14, PO Box 80.089, 3508 TB Utrecht, Netherlands Tel +31 (030) 253-3261 Fax +31 (030) 251-379
