If you grep for .Posix, you see: > Yi/Dired.hs:import System.Posix.Files > Yi/Dired.hs:import System.Posix.Types > Yi/Dired.hs:import System.Posix.User > Yi/Dired.hs:import Text.Regex.Posix > Yi/UI/Vty.hs:import System.Posix.Signals ( raiseSignal, sigTSTP ) > Yi/Search.hs:import Text.Regex.Posix.String ( Regex, compExtended, > > compIgnoreCase, compNewline, compile, execBlank ) > Yi/Buffer/Implementation.hs:import Text.Regex.Posix > Yi/Eval.hs:import Text.Regex.Posix > Yi/MkTemp.hs:import qualified System.Posix.Internals ( c_getpid ) > Yi/MkTemp.hs:System.Posix.Directory.createDirectory dir ownerModes > Yi/MkTemp.hs:getProcessID = System.Posix.Internals.c_getpid >>= return . > > fromIntegral > Yi/Editor.hs:import Text.Regex.Posix.Wrap( Regex ) > Yi/Buffer.hs:import Text.Regex.Posix.Wrap(Regex) All the mentions Text.Regex.Posix is not a problem, as regex-posix doesn't depend on the 'unix' package so far as I know. If you wanted to, you could quietly remove Dired.hs, which would remove its dependencies on System.Posix.*, and the same goes for VTY.hs (not that you'd really want that on Windows anyway). MkTemp is built, but I don't believe it's actually used by anything (maybe Dired?). And that would be it, so far as I know. But all that would be a lot of work, and Yi isn't mind-blowingly good, if you follow me. -- gwern Recon tors EOD MSNBC K3 NB Spoke MITM Crust filofax pgp2Lrz8crikg.pgp Description: PGP signature ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe

Is YI also an IDE for creating Haskell code? I guess it's not, it's "just" a text editor right? I mean, if it talks to GHC directly, it could neatly take over some tricks used in Visual Haskell (on the fly type inference, good completion, etc), only much much easier (without the COM layer, directly in Haskell). ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe

I was trying to establish whether it was worth my time to attempt to download Yi and GTK2HS and build them.

Does Yi use hs-plugins, or > does it go straight down to ghc? (looking at the yi.cabal file seems to > indicate no dependency on hs-plugins) Correct. Does that mean you volunteer and report any problems of running Yi on Windows? ;-) ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
