Hello Everybody,   The second part of my question pertained only to have a working version of the .NET CLR running on non-win32 platforms, e.g. Linux.It won't do any good to only having compilers targeted for .NET CLR if this run-time system and it's libraries only run on win32. Then darth vadar

Hello, Are any of the various Haskell implm., e.g. ghc, being targeted for the .NET CLR? Also can anybody point in the direction of any projects to implement the .NET CLR on anything other than Win32 platforms, e.g. that evil Free Software Foundation :^)?? Let's make .NET open source! hehe

Thank you. Now, on seeing your Tree example I tried to use it by defining height using structural recursion. But I couldn't find a valid syntax to pattern match - or otherwise define the function - on the type CT. Is there one? Or, maybe, are constructor classes the only way to use these types

using haxml dynamically

How can i use HaXml to produce xml, but in a dynamic way? i mean : 1) what i understand from the example is - u have a type H in haskell - u derive (manally or with drift) an instance Haskell2xml out of it (defines tocontenst, from contents) - u use it, say with to xml, from xml 2) id like to ge
