Readme for hCsound-0.2

hCsound - Haskell interface to the Csound API. Enable control of Csound from the Haskell language. Requirements: a haskell compiler (currently tested with GHC 6.6+), a working Csound installation, and a version of libsndfile compatible with csound. Building: In the simplest case, this program can be built in the standard cabal manner, as below: > runhaskell Setup.lhs configure > runhaskell Setup.lhs build > runhaskell Setup.lhs install The standard build assumes that csound.h is intalled in /usr/local/include/csound (UNIX/Linux) or C:\Csound\include (Windows), and that the csound libary is installed in /usr/local/lib. If csound is installed in another location, you must edit hCsound.cabal and specify the correct location for the header file in the include-dirs: line, and the library in the extra-lib-dirs line. This library also assumes that you are using a 64-bit Csound. Installing on Windows: Edit hCsound.cabal and change the extra-lib-dirs line to an appropriate value for your system. Also change include-dirs if necessary. Installing on Windows is tricky, and I have frequently had problems with the linker included in GHC and the csound DLL. Please contact the hCsound maintainer for further help. Using with 32-bit Csound: edit hCsound.cabal and change the extra-libraries line from csound64 to csound32.
