>From the Desk of the Bill and Exchange Manager, Mr. Matthew Ajame Banque Internationale pour Commerce et L'Industrie (BICICI) Abidjan Cote d 'lvoire Dear Respectful One, I am the Manager of Bill and Exchange at the Foreign Remittance Department of Banque Internationale pour Commerce et L'Industrie (BICICI) I am writing following the impressive information about you on the internet, assuring me of your capability and reliability to champion this business opportunity. In my department we discovered an abandoned sum of $16.152Million US dollars (Sixteen Million, One Hundred and Fifty Two Thousand U.S Dollars) .In an account that belongs to one of our foreign customers who died along with his entire family in a concord plane crash in the year 2000 in paris that almost took the whole life of the passengers on board. Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his next of kin to come over and claim his money because we cannot release unless somebody applies for it as next of kin or relation to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines, but unfortunately we learnt that all his supposed next of kin or relation died alongside with him at the plane crash leaving nobody behind for the claim. It is therefore upon this discovery that I and my colleague in my department now decided to make this businness proposal to you and release the money to you as the next of kin or relation to the deceased for safety and subsequent disbursement since nobody is coming for it and we do not want this money to go into the Bank treasury as unclaimed Bill. The Banking law and guideline here stipulates that if such money remained unclamed after three years, the money will be transfered into the Bank treasury account as unclaimed fund. The request of foreigner as next of kin in this business is occasioned by the fact that the customer was a foreigner and I, an Ivoirian cannot stand as next of kin to a foreigner. We agree that 30 % of this money will be for you as foreign partner, in respect to the provision of a foreign account, 10 % will be set aside for expenses incured during the business and 60 % would be for me and my colleagues. Thereafter, I and my colleagues will visit your country for disbursement according to the percentages indicated. Therefore to enable the immediate transfer of this fund to you as arranged, you must apply first to the bank as relations or next of kin of the deceased indicating your bank name, your bank account number, your private telephone and fax numbers for easy and effective communication and location where-in the money will be remitted through an attorney. Upon receipt of your reply, I will send to you by fax or email the text of the application and the proof of the existence of these funds for your kind perusal. I will not fail to bring to your notice that this transaction is hitch free and that you should not entertain any atom of fear as all required arrangements have been made for the transfer . You should contact me immediately as soon as you receive this letter.Trusting to hear from you immediately. Best regards, Mr. Matthew Ajame

Pre-Call for Contributions -- HC&A Report (November 2003 edition)
by C.Reinke 02 Oct '03

02 Oct '03

[apologies for multiple copies - experience has shown that not all Haskellers can be reached via the main Haskell list anymore] An entry for your diaries (no other action required right now): ------------------------------Pre-Call-------------------------------- Your contributions to the November 2003 edition of the Haskell Communities & Activities Report will be invited soon. http://www.haskell.org/communities/ Submissions are welcome between 20th and 31st of October ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The real Call for Contributions will follow closer to the submission window, in about two weeks. This is just an early warning. You will need to plan about 15 minutes for composing your contribution, which would be a brief, ASCII-format, description of your Haskell activities (see earlier editions for plenty of examples). Cheers, Claus (current editor of HC&A Reports)

hmake: Getting compiler info at runtime and not relying on name for compiler type
by Ian Lynagh 26 Sep '03

26 Sep '03

Hi, Attached is a patch which does two things: * Gets compiler type from the result of running a compiler if the first 3 letters aren't ghc|nhc|hbc|gcc. I wanted this for /usr/bin/haskell-compiler. * If "hmake-config add-dyn" is used instead of "hmake add" then the compiler information is not stored, but worked out dynamically when used. This means /usr/bin/haskell-compiler can be the default hmake compiler on a Debian installation and it doesn't matter if it is really nhc98, ghc6 or ghc5, and there is no need to require specific versions of the compilers. It could be a bit nicer, e.g. I didn't notice runAndReadStdout until I was half way through, but it seems to work for me. Thanks Ian

Target Code Generation
by Arun Kumar S Jadhav 01 Sep '03

01 Sep '03

Hi All, I'm looking at the implementation of Haskell done by nhc. The precise G-code semantics are still unclear to me. I wanted help in two matters 1) It would be great if someone explained the symbol table structure. Because many G-code seemed to refer to symbol table. 2) The file which generates target code from G-code and the related files.

Problems Compiling
by James Mills 29 Aug '03

29 Aug '03

Hi, I'm new to Haskell, let alone NHC. I'm James, a 2nd year Software Engineering student at Griffith University of Australia (www.griffith.edu.au) I have a few problems compiling, there are more errors than will fit on my terminal. I have attached the following files if anyone would like to assist me in where I've gone wrong. cheers James -- - -Zero Defect Software Engineers Group - ZDSEG - -You need only two tools. WD-40 and duct tape. -If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. -If it moves and shouldn't, use the tape.
