[Haskell-cafe] Random idea

2007-05-20 Thread Andrew Coppin

Greetings.

I was thinking... we already have Lambdabot sitting in an IRC channel. 
How hard would it be to mangle Lambdabot to the point where it works 
over HTTP? You know - so you could type some Haskell into a form on a 
web page, hit [submit], and get the result sent back to you? (Again, 
assuming it can be computed in a sane amount of time/space, and 
truncated to some reasonable textual length.)


I think it might be kinda neat to have such a thing linked from the 
Haskell.org homepage. You know, sort of hey, wanna try Haskell without 
installing any stuff? Click here!


...on the other hand, maybe I'm just strange... :-$

Still, an interface like the fancy Web 2.0 ones that Ruby has could be nice.

Lambdabot web server is here:

Thought we never announced it off channel, and it hasn't been updated in
a while.

yeah, we've had this in mind as a base for an online haskell
quiz/tutorial series. Perhaps someone would like to make this happen :-)

OMG! That was really fast... o_O

I have no idea what Web 2.0 is, but from what I hear it's overrated...

Well, a web interface potentially provides for nicer output formatting 
than the plain text of an IRC channel. Could be interesting to actually 
make use of it...

For me it gives:

Maybe you meant: . v

But the rest of the commands seems working ;)

Sorry about that, I upgraded my ghc package without realizing it would
affect lambdabot.  I'll see if I can fix it.

Thanks,
Jason
