This gives numerous tutorials and introductions. I agree with Eray, I tried to learn Haskell without any printed material, and failed. Once I had the Simon Thompson's "Craft of.." I was doing fine. I have an irc friend who would also like to learn Haskell, and who is blind. He uses a braille reader in the Linux console, but the electronically available Haskell documentation just isn't sufficient. I taught myself Python in about two weeks with the online Python tutorial, I think something similar for Haskell would greatly increase the number of Haskell users. ---- Shae Matijs Erisson - http://www.webwitches.com/~shae/ Rabid Linux/XEmacs User - MSOffice documents will be returned as LaTeX _______________________________________________ Haskell mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell
