Gee, wizzz, folks. Thank you all for the many hints. I can't say yet
which one I'll dive into but I'm in good spirits about Haskell and GUI
now. I like the idea of a functional approach and I don't need
extensive GUIs either, so Grapefruit just added another candidate...
Using the Cocoa API or AppleScript bindings is very slick (I'll look
into that), but I think I'd rather have a platform independent
solution for my class.
I'll do my best to post a beginners tutorial on the web where it may
be found, but it'll likely be in German. I will definitely continue to
recommend Haskell to my colleagues.
Thanks again for your support,
Torsten

If you can get wxHaskell installed & working, you could try Phooey
and/or
TV. Both are described on the Haskell wiki and available via darcs
and
Hackage.
And they have the interesting property of being a functional
approach to GUI
programming (similar to FranTk). Most of the other Haskell GUI
toolkits are
imperative in nature.
And now my shameless plug: If you can get Gtk2Hs installed and
working, you
could try Grapefruit which is also a functional library. In
addition to
GUIs, it also supports animated graphics. At the moment, it’s main
downside
is that it supports only a small set of widgets (buttons, labels,
edit fields
and boxes). See <http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Grapefruit>.
Best wishes,
Wolfgang
