[ANN] - Hugs for MacOS (x86) - via Nix Flakes
by Justin Bailey 23 Oct '22

23 Oct '22

I spent some time with the last public release of the Hugs sources, making them compile on a modern Mac (x86 chipset). I used Nix's flakes feature to manage the build and install. If you'd like to run the hugs interpreter directly using the flake, just type: `nix run github:m4dc4p/hugs#hugs` If you'd like to execute a Haskell file, try: `nix run github:m4dc4p/hugs <file.hs>` Or alternately: `nix run github:m4dc4p/hugs#runhugs <file.hs>` (That is, `runhugs` is the default app provided by the flake.) See the README at https://github.com/m4dc4p/hugs for more details (including other binaries available). I don't have much of a use case for Hugs, so I got the flake to the point where I could start the interpreter and run simple programs. I'm glad to accept pull requests or bug reports. You can find the source and submit any issues at https://github.com/m4dc4p/hugs. Note: I don't have access to Apple silicon, so this build has only been tested under x86. If it works for M1 please let me know, or if you are able to submit a PR I'd welcome it! Enjoy! Justin
