At least two of the regular contributors to GHC work on Macs. That should ensure that Mac OS X is well supported. Installation is trivial with the Mac OS X installer package:<br>

Good advice, but I've generally found the MacPorts version more consistantly built – plus, sudo port install ghc is nice and easy :)</blockquote><div><br></div><div>Does the MacPort have GMP linked statically or dynamically?

Hi, following on from this point:<br>
<br>
How does one get gtk2hs running on a mac?<br>
<br>
I have a MacBook Pro, and I've had ghc installed for some time now.<br>
<br>
(first in 6.8.2 (packaged),<br>
then 6.10.1 (packaged),<br>
then 6.8.2 via macports 1.6<br>
then 6.10.1 via macports 1.7)<br>
<br>
I tried to install gtk2hs via macports, but it didn't work.<br>
(0.9.12? on 6.8.2, then on 6.10.1)<br>
Is there a recipe one could follow?<br>
Can I get the preconditions via macports, and then use cabal to install<br>
gtk2hs 0.10?<br>
</blockquote>
<br></div>
For me, this worked:<br>
sudo port install ghc<br>
sudo port install gtk2<br>
sudo port install cairomm<br>
curl <a href="http://downloads.sourceforge.net/gtk2hs/gtk2hs-0.10.0.tar.gz" target="_blank">http://downloads.sourceforge.net/gtk2hs/gtk2hs-0.10.0.tar.gz</a> > gtk2hs-0.10.0.tar.gz<br>
tar xvfz gtk2hs-0.10.0.tar.gz<br>
normal install stuff here.<br>
<br>
