Palindromes ============================================== [Palindromes] is a package for finding palindromes in files. [Palindromes]: http://www.jeuring.net/homepage/palindromes/index.html Features -------- The primary features of [Palindromes] include: * Linear-time algorithm for finding exact palindromes * Linear-time algorithm for finding text palindromes, ignoring spaces, case of characters, and punctuation symbols. * Linear-time algorithm for finding word palindromes, text palindromes surrounded by (if at all) non-letters. * Linear-time algorithm for finding palindromes in DNA. Requirements ------------ [Palindromes] has the following requirements: * [GHC] version 6.8.1 or later - It has been tested with version 7.2.2. * [Cabal] library version 1.2.1 or later - It has been tested with version 1.10.2.0. [GHC]: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ [Cabal]: http://www.haskell.org/cabal/ Download & Installation ----------------------- *If you have [cabal-install]*, you should use that to install the package, because it will handle everything for you. cabal install palindromes *If you don't have cabal-install*, you must download the [Palindromes package] from HackageDB and install it manually. Get the `tar.gz` file and decompress it. Once downloaded, use the following commands for configuring, building, and installing the library. runghc Setup.lhs configure runghc Setup.lhs build runghc Setup.lhs install For more details on the general options available, refer to the [Cabal User's Guide].
