Hi,
the vect library: http://hackage.haskell.org/package/vect
and its OpenGLl companion: http://hackage.haskell.org/package/vect-opengl
were written specifically for doing computer graphics. It probably contains
all vector/matrix operations you need. If this is not the case, I'm happy
to hear suggestions.
I don't think there is a better alternative at the moment (definitely
nothing close in coverage of functionality).
(disclaimer: I'm the author of these)
Historical note: The Tensor package was born because the original author of
the OpenGL package felt that it makes sense to make it separate from the
big OpenGL package. He planned a serious refactoring/rewrite of the OpenGL
package. However, he seems to have disappeared since.

Dear All,
I see that Tensor library is used in OpenGL, OpenVG and few other libraries. Is there any plan to make vector operations available? [E.g. dot and cross product, vector projection and rejection.]
Would you accept a patch, or would you recommend making another library? (Say Tensor-Operations:Data.Tensor.Operations.)
For now they are included in AC-Vector package that uses a different type, which leads to impedance mismatch and unnecessary copying.
I already contacted the maintainer of AC-Vector package, but got no answer to this problem so far. -- Best regards Michal
