- This is the main directory for the 2.x release of Yale Haskell.
-
- If you are using Yale Haskell on a Unix system, you should set the
- variable $HASKELL and source the haskell-setup script in this
- directory before attempting to use Yale Haskell.
-
- If you are using Yale Haskell on a Macintosh, you can just double-click
- on the Haskell icon.
-
- If you are rebuilding from the source release, see the scripts and
- README files in the $HASKELL/com area.
-
- Please read the manual for more information about how to use and
- install Yale Haskell.
-
-
- Here are some notes about the organization of the files in this
- directory tree.
-
- Each directory containing source files has separate subdirectories to
- contain binary files for each of the various Lisps we support. Each
- directory containing source files should also have a file that defines
- a compilation unit for that directory. (See "support/compile.scm" for
- information about the compilation unit utility.) "support/system.scm"
- loads all the compilation unit definitions.
-
- Loading "cl-support/cl-init.lisp" will load the entire Haskell system
- into a fresh Lisp. The scripts in the $HASKELL/com area do this for
- you.
-
- For information about the mumble compatibility package used as the
- implementation language for the rest of the system, see
- support/mumble.txt. We've isolated all the system-specific parts of
- the mumble support code in the "cl-support" directory. The "support"
- directory contains higher-level mumble support stuff.
-
- We don't make extensive use of packages in our system. Except for the
- low-level mumble support, everything is in the MUMBLE-USER package.
