Hugs for Macintosh 2001/10/12

I made an update to the version that I and Pablo Azero used to develop; it is at http://www.matematik.su.se/~haberg/Computer/Hugs98Feb2001MacBin20011012.sit The sources I used to compile these, using Metrowerks CodeWarrior Pro 5 are at http://www.matematik.su.se/~haberg/Computer/Hugs98Feb2001MacSrc20011012.sit If somebody is willing to put this stuff up elsewhere, please let me know. As hinted, I do not develop this one anymore, and I do not think that Pablo has time for that either. This is essentially an version I made the last fall (2000), updated to use the Hugs Feb 2001 kernel. It was just an experiment, so try it out as is (but I do not think there should be any problems). I think people would be better off to get hold of MacOS X, and use a version using its BSD shells. If somebody is interested in making a GUI or a version capable of handling AppleEvent's, that should be under MacOS X I think, and not building on the current version. The (main) differences from the previous versions are: - It uses the Feb 2001 Hugs kernel. - One can now drop files onto Hugs when it is up and running. -- I removed the DropUNIX package and implemented AppleEvent's directly instead. - Both MacOS '\r' and UNIX '\n' are accepted as newlines when reading files. (The DOS newline, which uses both control characters, will be read as two newlines.) - There is an experimental package for sending and receiving AppleEvent's. If you do not use this feature, it should not be a bother to you. Hans Aberg

WinHugs crashes reversing infinite lists

Hello all. I think I found a bug on Hugs for Windows 32 (both on the GUI version and the console). If you try to reverse an infinite list, for example: reverse (repeat 0) reverse [1..] This will make Hugs segfault. Of course, reversing an infinite list is not something you should do, but so isn't segfaulting :) GHC for W2K just freezes (as would be expected). Hope I helped, Carlos
