The (Interactive) Glasgow Haskell Compiler -- version 7.8.4<br>
==============================================================<br>
<br>
The GHC Team is pleased to announce a new patchlevel release of GHC, 7.8.4.<br>
<br>
This is an important bugfix release relative to 7.8.3 (with over 30<br>
defects fixed), so we highly recommend upgrading from the previous 7.8<br>
releases.<br>
<br>
The full release notes are here:<br>

How to get it<br>
~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br>
<br>
The easy way is to go to the web page, which should be self-explanatory:<br>
<br>
<a href="https://www.haskell.org/ghc/" target="_blank">https://www.haskell.org/ghc/</a><br>
<br>
We supply binary builds in the native package format for many<br>
platforms, and the source distribution is available from the same<br>
place.<br>
<br>
Packages will appear as they are built - if the package for your<br>
system isn't available yet, please try again later.<br>
<br>
<br>
Background<br>
~~~~~~~~~~<br>
<br>
Haskell is a standard lazy functional programming language.<br>
<br>
GHC is a state-of-the-art programming suite for Haskell. Included is<br>
an optimising compiler generating good code for a variety of<br>
platforms, together with an interactive system for convenient, quick<br>
development. The distribution includes space and time profiling<br>
facilities, a large collection of libraries, and support for various<br>
language extensions, including concurrency, exceptions, and foreign<br>
language interfaces (C, whatever). GHC is distributed under a<br>
BSD-style open source license.<br>
<br>
A wide variety of Haskell related resources (tutorials, libraries,<br>
specifications, documentation, compilers, interpreters, references,<br>
contact information, links to research groups) are available from the<br>
Haskell home page (see below).<br>
<br>
