* README file for cpuid binding
This small Cabal package provides a Haskell binding to the "cpuid"
machine instruction on modern IA-32 processors.
** Usage
Use
runghc Setup.hs configure
runghc Setup.hs build
runghc Setup.hs install
for building and installing system-wide, or
runghc Setup.hs configure --prefix=$HOME/haskell-modules
runghc Setup.hs build
runghc Setup.hs install --user
for building and installing in directory $HOME/haskell-modules.
Just import module "System.Cpuid" into your Haskell file and use
ghc --make FILENAME
to compile your program.
The "tests" directory contains a small test program for the module and
demonstrates its usage. You may compile this program by installing with
cabal install -fbuildExamples cpuid
There is also a C version for this test program, to test the overheads
of Haskell's FFI.
Happy Haskell hacking,
Martin
