Hi there, did you perchance upgrade to XP in that period? The upgrader/installer for XP doesn't quite manage to correctly convert the user-specific Registry options for Hugs. Even if that's not the case, the underlying problem is most likely Registry related. http://galois.com/~sof/hugs/PowerToys.html has got a utility for resetting the user-specific Hugs :settings. I believe (and hope) that it will get you going again. hth --sigbjorn (For the 'regedit' savvy, HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Haskell\Hugs\ contains the keys that the 'restore' utility will delete Options values from.) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mordechai (Moti) Ben-Ari" <moti.ben-ari@cs.joensuu.fi> To: <hugs-bugs@haskell.org> Sent: Thursday, October 31, 2002 23:26 Subject: winhugs window disappears
Hello
I have used hugs98 with the winhugs gui for a couple of weeks with no problem. Suddenly, every time i try to run it, the window flashes briefly and disappears. Running hugs.exe from a command line still works. I tried uninstalling/rebooting/reinstalling, to no avail. My system is windows xp. Any ideas?
Thanks
Moti
