Hat + nhc98 version 1.08 ======================== We are pleased to announce a new release of Hat and the nhc98 compiler. This is a stable release, containing many bugfixes in both the compiler and the Hat tracing and debugging tools. If you have not yet tried out the Hat tracing system, this is a good opportunity to give it a workout. New features of note in release 1.08 are: * There are "tunnels" between hat-observe, hat-detect, and hat-trail, enabling the user to jump directly from one view to another at exactly the point of interest. * You can now have multiple copies of hat-trail running simultaneously. * The nhc98 compiler implements the recent revisions of the Haskell'98 Report. nhc98 is a full compiler for Haskell'98, with extensive support for space profiling, time profiling, and tracing your programs. The system is available as source code, which can be built with the Gnu C compiler on any 32-bit platform, or with any already-installed Haskell compiler. Binary packages are also currently available for ix86-Linux and sparc-solaris2. http://www.cs.york.ac.uk/fp/nhc98/ Further information about Hat is available at http://www.cs.york.ac.uk/fp/hat/ Happy tracing, The ART team in York (Malcolm Wallace, Olaf Chitil, Thorsten Brehm, Colin Runciman)
