Readme for hs-fltk-0.2.5

Haskell interface to the FLTK window toolkit * Built using Cabal with hacks. * For more information about FLTK see www.fltk.org * Porting to windows should be possible, but I don't have the resources to do it. Dependencies * A very recent version of Cabal is needed * 17.11. support for C-Sources in subdirs * 6.12. Extra-Lib-Dirs support - not necessary on all platforms. * Works with both GHC 6.2 and the CVS version of GHC. * FLTK 1.1 headers and library * No direct dependency on libstdc++ although libfltk does depend on it. This is to avoid issues with linkers doing nasty things. Building * Download and unpack. * Build and install through Cabal as for other Haskell packages: runhaskell Setup configure --user --prefix=$HOME runhaskell Setup build runhaskell Setup install --user (You may want to remove the --user flag when installing as root.) * see example/ * library errors are most likely due to missing symlinks e.g. libfltk.so -> libfltk.so.1, if someone knows how to fix this with Cabal please tell. TODO * GHCI support is broken due to GHC not supporting weak (W) symbols properly. * The Hugs Debian package is not usable. For more information contact: Einar Karttunen <ekarttun at cs helsinki fi>
