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.

Numerous changes in the RTS to get GUM-4.06 working (currently works with
parfib-ish programs). Most changes are isolated in the rts/parallel dir.
rts/parallel/:
The most important changes are a rewrite of the (un-)packing code (Pack.c)
and changes in LAGA, GALA table operations (Global.c) expecially in
rebuilding the tables during GC.
rts/:
Minor changes in Schedule.c, GC.c (interface to par specific root marking
and evacuation), and lots of additions to Sanity.c (surprise ;-)
Main.c change for startup: I use a new function rts_evalNothing to
start non-main-PEs in a PAR || SMP setup (RtsAPI.c)
includes/:
Updated GranSim macros in PrimOps.h.
lib/std:
Few changes in PrelHandle.c etc replacing ForeignObj by Addr in a PAR
setup (we still don't support ForeignObjs or WeakPtrs in GUM).
Typically use
#define FILE_OBJECT Addr
when dealing with files.
hslibs/lang/:
Same as above (in Foreign(Obj).lhs, Weak.lhs, IOExts.lhs etc).
