Files relating to the Fudgets system
====================================

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE ON COMPATIBILITY OF BINARY DISTIBUTIONS OF FUDGETS:

To use Fudgets you also need a Haskell compiler. Since you can usually
not mix object code generated by different versions of the compilers, make
sure you get matching versions:

Fudgets version	Compiler version
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~	~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
h12		HBC 0.9999.3 (0.9999.4 to compile the source distribution)
h12		NHC13 0.0
h12		GHC 2.01

h12{a,b}	HBC 0.9999.3
h11		HBC 0.9999.1
h10		HBC 0.9999.0
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Files in /pub/haskell/chalmers:

    fudgets-h*.src.tar.gz
	This file contains sources, documentation, examples and demos.

	Unpack this in a directory of your choice and see the README file
	for further instructions.


    fudgets-h*.bin-*-*.tar.gz
	Binary dirstribution of Fudgets for use with HBC.
	If you don't want to build the fudget library yourself, you
	you might find a precompiled archive for your machine in one of
	these files. They contain the interface file Fudgets.hi
	and the object library files lib.a and lib.so. They also 
        contains the script hbcxmake for compilation of Fudget programs.

	Unpack this in a fresh directory, and then see the enclosed
	README file for further instructions.

	The documentation and pointers to further information is available
	via the Fudgets Home Page in WWW:

		http://www.cs.chalmers.se/Fudgets/

    ghc-fudgets-h*.bin-*-*.tar.gz
    nhc-fudgets-h*.bin-*-*.tar.gz
	These files contain precompiled Fudgets library archives for use
	with NHC13 and GHC 2.01, respectively.

    hbc-*bin*.tar.gz
	Binary distribution of the Haskell compiler HBC.
	NOTE: These archives might contain binaries for an older version of
	the fudget library in the directory "lmlx", please discard these.

    AllFudgets.hi, Fudgets.hi
	If you get the source distribution version h12 or later and compile it
	with HBC 0.9999.x, x<4, you will get bad versions of fudget library
	interface files. Workaround: use a binary release if possible, or
	get these two files and throw away the ones generated by HBC.

See the directories ../glasgow and ../nhc13 for GHC and NHC13.
