Windows NT installer does not run

1999-08-27 Thread Mircea Draghicescu
Hi, I downloaded the "ghc-4.03 (InstallShield installer, 8M)" and started setup.exe, but nothing happens - the program exits right away without displaying anything. I have a NT machine with enough memory, speed, etc. Also is it 4.04 (as the parent page states) or 4.03? Is "ghc-4.03 patch" still

Towards a more OO Haskell

I have been "scratching a personal itch" lately and was wondering if anyone else has the same itch. If so, I might spend some time to codify a sort of preprocessor that produces a more OO Haskell. Right now I'm doing all of the transformations by hand, instead of relying on an automated tool.
