Hi, thanks for the report. The Options dialog is unfortunately broken in the released version of WinHugs. The problem has been fixed in the current sources, but until a new version is out (whenever that might be) my only suggestion is to stay away from using that dialog. Sorry. To bring your install of WinHugs back to life, remove the -F"" bit at the end of your Options setting. --sigbjorn Henk-Jan.van.Tuyl <Henk-Jan.van.Tuyl@hotpop.com> wrote:

Hello all,

I'm experiencing two problems at about the same time, I do not know if they are related: After setting an option for winhugs, using the GUI, Winhugs refused to start, displaying an error message about expecting another double quote. I solved this by changing the Options in the registry: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Haskell\Hugs\WinhugsNov2003\Options had the following value: -s -t -g -G -l -. +q -Q -w -k -o -O +u -I -T +A +R -H +98 -h250000 -p"%s> " -r"$$" -P".:{Hugs}/libraries:{Hugs}/oldlib:{Hugs}/libraries/win32" -S".hs;.lhs" -E"C:\\WINDOWS\\notepad.exe" -c40 -F"" " I removed the double quote at the end. The error message about the double quote is now replaced with the message: ERROR - Unable to open file "C:\PROGRAM FILES\HUGS98/libraries\Hugs\Prelude.hs

I am running: Hugs '98 Nov 2003 on Windows 98
