Gofer 2.30a binary executable won't run on Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2
by Benjamin L. Russell 27 Feb '08

27 Feb '08

Since "HUGS" stands for "Haskell User's Gofer System" (see http://www.websters-dictionary-online.org/definition/Hugs for a reference), and HUGS is a later version of Gofer, I am sending this inquiry about a problem in installing Gofer to this mailing list. I managed to get Gofer 2.28 (see "some haskell FAQ info (occasional posting, long" (http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~dons/haskell-1990-2006/msg00936.html) for download information) installed on Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2, but when I downloaded Gofer 2.30a and tried to run bcgofer.exe (either by executing it from the Command Prompt, or by double-clicking it in the GUI) (there is no GOFER.EXE file in that version), the program quit immediately. The same thing happened when I tried to run bcgofc.exe. I was unable to follow instructions in the README.PC file for Gofer 2.30a because that file refers to a non-existent "GOFER.EXE" file. How can I move a file that doesn't exist to the C:\Gofer directory? The bundled documentation for Gofer 2.30a seems outdated. In addition, I tried installing the binary executables in 386gofer, but with the same results as with Gofer 2.30a; i.e., when I tried to invoke GOFER.EXE, a Command Prompt window appeared for a fraction of a second, then disappeared. The user and system environmental variables are both set correctly; viz: EDITLINE: C:\bin\emacs\bin\runemacs.exe +%d %s EDITOR: C:\bin\emacs\bin\runemacs.exe GO32: emu c:\DJGPP\EMU387\emu387 GO32TMP: C:\TMP GOPHER: C:\GOFER\standard.prelude Path: C:\Gofer;<existing path> I was able to get Gofer 2.28 to run without needing to compile anything. Do I need to compile something to run Gofer 2.30a? It seems strange that I can get Gofer 2.28 to work, but not Gofer 2.30; what could be wrong? I am currently reading the paper "Functional Programming," by Jeroen Fokker and the Department of Computer Science of Utrecht University (http://people.cs.uu.nl/jeroen/courses/fp-eng.pdf) which uses Gofer. If you could please tell me what I need to do to get Gofer 2.30a to work properly, I would appreciate it very much. Benjamin L. Russell

Less defaulting with -98
by Neil Mitchell 14 Jan '08

14 Jan '08

Hi $ hugs -98 Hugs> [] ERROR - Cannot find "show" function for: *** Expression : [] *** Of type : [a] $hugs +98 Hugs> [] [] It seems that with -98 you don't get the very handy defaulting. Is this a delibarate decision, or is it just a bug? Thanks Neil

#44: Hugs does not provide version numbers for installed packages --------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Reporter: briansmith | Owner: nobody Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: hugs | Version: 200609 Resolution: | Keywords: --------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Changes (by guest): * cc: duncan(a)haskell.org (added) Comment: Replying to [comment:2 ross]: > On the other hand, !InstalledPackageInfo is somewhat GHC-specific, so perhaps it would be better in both cases to just put in the package description, augmented with any buildinfo generated by package configuration. Is there anything GHC-specific that would cause problems? Some fields can simply be ignored for hugs. It'd be nice if we could get ghc, nhc and hugs all using a collection of !InstalledPackageInfo values for the package database. In future Cabal will read back the whole !InstalledPackageInfo when working with ghc so it can do module chasing. It'd be great if we could include hugs in such a scheme too. Currently Cabal doesn't know anything about the installed packages for hugs. -- Ticket URL: <http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hugs/ticket/44#comment:5> Hugs <http://www.haskell.org/hugs/> Hugs 98, an interpreter for Haskell

[Hugs] #81: support --version flag
by Hugs 10 Jan '08

#81: support --version flag --------------------+------------------------------------------------------- Reporter: guest | Owner: nobody Type: defect | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: Component: hugs | Version: 200609 Keywords: | --------------------+------------------------------------------------------- Discovering hugs's version number is almost impossible and certainly impractical. The result is that Cabal does not know the hugs version number. As far as I can see, the only way to find the version number is to start hugs, grep the banner and translate textual months into a sensible version number, then :q to exit hugs again. Note also that hugs considers itself to be unversioned: {{{ $ hugs -98 System.Info __ __ __ __ ____ ___ _________________________________________ || || || || || || ||__ Hugs 98: Based on the Haskell 98 standard ||___|| ||__|| ||__|| __|| Copyright (c) 1994-2005 ||---|| ___|| World Wide Web: http://haskell.org/hugs || || Report bugs to: hugs-bugs(a)haskell.org || || Version: March 2005 _________________________________________ Hugs mode: Restart with command line option +98 for Haskell 98 mode Type :? for help System.Info> compilerVersion Version {versionBranch = [0,0], versionTags = []} System.Info> }}} Version 0.0 eh? Most programs support a --version command line flag that spits out the version number (and sometimes some other (un)helpful information) and then terminates. As for the format, I'd suggest: {{{ hugs --version Hugs version 2006.9 }}} That is, a version number that can fit into the Data.Version format. The reason this is important for Cabal support is that it'd allow Cabal itself or packages (via configurations) to conditionally enable/disable support for features depending on the version of hugs. -- Ticket URL: <http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hugs/ticket/81> Hugs <http://www.haskell.org/hugs/> Hugs 98, an interpreter for Haskell

Garbage printed
by hjgtuyl＠chello.nl 07 Jan '08

07 Jan '08

L.S., I tried the following commands: [1..] !! 5500000 [1..] !! 55000000 in WinHugs; messages about garbage collection are printed. Between the GC messages of the second command, parts of the text of the first command are repeated, see the attached image. The reason, that I attached this picture, is that copy/paste to this posting resulted in an even bigger mess: {{Gc:8375486}}Hugs> [1..] !! 5500000 {{Gc:8375457}}{{Gc:8375450}}{{Gc:8375450}}{{Gc:8375450}}{{Gc:8375450}}{{Gc:8375451}}{{Gc:8375450}}{{Gc:8375450}}{{Gc:8375450}}{{Gc:8375450}}{{Gc:8375450}}{{Gc:8375451}}{{Gc:8375450}}{{Gc:8375450}}{{Gc:8375450}}{{Gc:8375450}}{{Gc:8375450}}{{Gc:8375451}}{{Gc:8375450}}{{Gc:8375450}}{{Gc:8375450}}5500001 (126500045 reductions, 175998568 cells, 21 garbage collections) {{Gc:8375486}}Hugs> [1..] !!

I received the following response to my previous e-mail to the Hugs-Bugs mailing list: Your mail to 'Hugs-Bugs' with the subject Garbage printed Is being held until the list moderator can review it for approval. The reason it is being held: Message body is too big: 610887 bytes with a limit of 10 KB To be sure that my maling gets through, I thougt that it would be best to send this mailing. -- Met vriendelijke groet, Henk-Jan van Tuyl -- http://functor.bamikanarie.com http://Van.Tuyl.eu/ --

Fwd: Question
by Neil Mitchell 27 Nov '07

27 Nov '07

Hi A user asked: --------------------------------------------------- I installed WinHugs on a Winodw Xp machine went into settings and set the search path to be(shown exactly as :set is listing it). Search path : -P.;{Hugs}\packages\*;c:\haskell I am keeping my fact.hs files(well my one and only at this time) in c:\haskell. Hugs> :load fact.hs ERROR - Unable to open file "fact.hs" Hugs> :load "c:\haskell\fact.hs" Fact> --------------------------------------------------- I realise that that isn't expected to work (the search path appears to be only for modules not files), but I do wonder why not. An equivalent feature request is: :l List -- works fine :l List.hs -- doesn't Thanks Neil

[Hugs] #80: A curious stack overflow problem

#80: A curious stack overflow problem --------------------+------------------------------------------------------- Reporter: guest | Owner: nobody Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: hugs | Version: 200609 Keywords: | --------------------+------------------------------------------------------- Suppose I define > natmin :: [Int] -> Int > natmin = foldr1 min > where min x y = if x==0 || x<=y then x else y I would expect the same behaviour from natmin ([1..10000] ++ [0..]) as from or ([False | i <- [1..10000]] ++ [True | i <- [1..]]) But the first gives stack overflow, and the second doesn't. The problem does not exist with GHCi.
