Great!
For this I decided to use Glut. I followed this tutorial but I didn't
succeed: http://netsuperbrain.com/blog/posts/freeglut-windows-hopengl-hglut/
I would advise against using GLUT. I recommend GLFW-b. You can get it from Hackage. I've tested it on Windows 7, OSX, and Linux. It should just work out of the box.
I am using Windows 7. Now I removed all things I installed from my computer
about haskell & openGL & GLUT.
And I installed Haskell Platform. I found out that openGL and GLUT are
included in this platform. OK but there is one problem:
GHCi, version 7.0.4: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ :? for help

can't load .so/.DLL for: glut32 (addDLL: could not load DLL)
You need to find a copy of glut32.dll and put it into the same directory. If you want to use GLUT, I would use the dll from freeglut. By the way, if you want to use ghci with opengl you will need to start ghci with -fno-ghci-sandbox. Otherwise you will get weird crashes. This applies to GLUT and GLFW-b equally.
Please help me. I tried 2 days to install this. Before that I tried to
instal WXHaskell too, and i failed. Or recomand me an library that you use
and there are some examples of code to figure out how to use it and is good
for my purpose: Pong.
I would use GLFW-b.
I hope that helps,
