-Installing Gtk2Hs on Mac requires some finesse, at least until Haskell Libary Platform is built or ghc-6.8.3 is
-available in macports. (These are planned for late 2008.)
+It currently works with Gtk+ 2.0 through to 2.22 on Unix, Win32 and MacOS X.
-* Install [http://macports.org MacPorts]
+Details please check : http://www.gtk.org/language-bindings.php
-* Install dependencies:
- sudo port instll glade3 libglade2 gstreamer gst-plugins-base gtksourceview cairo librsvg gtkglext firefox
-* Update PKG_CONFIG_PATH (for libraries)
- export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:/opt/local/lib/pkgconfig
-* Update ghc to use macports libs: Edit your main <tt>ghc</tt> driver program and change the last line to:
- exec $GHCBIN $TOPDIROPT ${1+"$@"} -L/opt/local/lib -I/opt/local/include
-* Download Gtk2Hs following instructions at [http://www.haskell.org/gtk2hs/downloads/ Gtk2Hs Download page]
-* Check configuration:
- ./configure --enable-docs --enable-profiling
+It currently builds with ghc 6.10.4 through to 7.2.1 (6.12.2 have runtime bug, don't use it)
