Hello all
Some of you in the audience may have read Dave Keenan's paper, [To
Dissect a Mockingbird][]. A subset of that may have wondered if it was
possible to generate those pretty pictures programmatically. For that
subset, I can answer to you -- yes, yes you can.

really? does the 64 bit code work correctly when compiled?
if the compiled version works correctly, could you post a repo of some
example codlets that *should work* on ghc 7.6 so i can sort out if its
fixable. There were some similar problems with gtk / cairo for a while on
OS X, and i was able t
Hi folks,

systems work.

Running gloss [1] programs from GHCi only works with the 32bit version of the
latest Haskell Platform.
The 64-bit version just shows a black window and GHCi becomes unresponsive.
I use gloss to display trees and graphs in the functional programming course
given at our university.

Hi,
I made a mistake when I said this worked, earlier. My experiment
was run on a system where I had implemented Christian Maeder's
suggestion, by symlinking some static libs in to GHC's libdir.
Naturally, everything appeared to work.
It turns out we have to pass the libraries with -optl, to

Both are excellent points, thank you.
Your mention of general recursion prompts the following: in 1995, ten years
after publication of Boehm-Berarducci, Launchbury and Sheard investigated
transformation of programs written in general recursive form into
