This is the root directory for functional-programming tools distributed by the Computing Science Department at Glasgow University. Simon Peyton Jones <simonpj@microsoft.com> is the ringleader of this effort. The tools are: ghc the Glasgow Haskell compilation system hslibs collection of Haskell libraries haggis the Haggis GUI toolkit happy the Happy Haskell parser generator hdirect Haskell interop tool green-card a foreign function interface pre-processor for Haskell. nofib the NoFib Haskell benchmarking suite literate the Glasgow "literate programming" system glafp-utils shared utility programs mk GNU make setup used by all of fptools docs documentation on the installing and using the fptools suite. Components which are always part of a distribution (never stand-alone) are "glafp-utils" and "mk" (a configuration system). Quick start: the following is *supposed* to work $ ./configure $ make boot $ make $ make install where 'make' is whatever GNU make is called on your system. The configuration script is a standard GNU autoconf script which accepts all the normal arguments, eg. --prefix=<blah> to install the package somewhere other than /usr/local. Try ./configure --help to get a full list of the options. There is usually an ANNOUNCE* file with any distribution. Please consult that, or the <piece>/README file, to find out how to proceed.
