OK, I have commited the bulk of my changes. > On the other notes, currently I am looking into integrating > Tcl/Tk into Perl6, which is currently developed in Haskell, > and here are some notes on the fact: Sounds cool ... my haskell is extremely limited, so I don't know that I'll be of much help. > - I realized that TclHaskell is currently out-of-date, > (does not compile) and I have some inprovement patches and > tried to contact author (with no avail) Hmmm, first hit at http://www.dcs.gla.ac.uk/~meurig/TclHaskell/ and it certainly seems to be old. It appears that they did make a version for 8.3 at some point. I suspect they never did one that properly used Tcl stubs though, otherwise you would not need to recompile for newer Tcl releases anyways. > - it is probably better to not use TclHaskell and write > direct calls to tcl/tk library; frantk is based on top of > TclHaskell and I have no idea about it's shape. > - while I received commit bit and am planning to add Tcl/Tk > into PUGS (current codename of haskell implementation of > perl6), I did not negotiated inclusion of such support into > distribution yet. > - Haskell and Pugs sourcetree are amazingly hard to start > with :):), and PUGS has amazingly quick growth > > All in all, I am trying Tcl::Tk in perl6, and there are > interesting things here. OK, let us know about progress, and if there is something about the build system that can be made to make this easier. Jeff
