 Hello,

 I made a new version of `hp2html` (0.2), which shows the legend by default
 (take a look at at the attached screen shot).  If the legend is in the way,
 you can turn it off (and on) by clicking on the button at the top of the
 screen.

Nice!

 Hello,

 I am happy to announce the availability of a little tool that I wrote while
 I was doing some Haskell profiling.  It converts GHC's heap-profiles into
 HTML, and renders them nicely using the flot library.  Its functionality is
 similar to `hp2ps`.  I wrote it because I find the HTML output easier to
 work with and, also, because it can cope with partial profiles, so one can
 refresh the profile while the program is running.  The tool is a very short
 Haskell program, so it should be quite easy to modify and improve (and there
 is a lot that can be improved in it! :-).

Looks really nice. The hovering behavior is nice, but I'd like to see
the legend as well. It makes it quicker when you want to get a quick
overview of what types there are, as the eye can travel back-and-forth
between the graph and the legend.

I started with the legend but it was too big on the program that i was
profiling, so i switched to the hovering mode. I agree that it is not
optimal. Perhaps there's a way to instruct flot to show only some of the
entries or, better, order them in some useful way.  I'm no flot expert, so
ideas (or patches) on how to do it would be most appreciated!

Big in what sense? Area wise? You could perhaps put it outside the flot graph.
