MicroHs is the browser is more fun now

augustss:

inttypes.h appeared in VS13, and you have VS12. Pity.

Thank you for checking. I looked into it a bit, but seems it’ll need too much hacking to backport.

For me, one of the great strengths of Haskell is Hackage.

Sure, and the way Hoogle links to it. You can just point-n-click to download the .tar from Hackage; unzip and compile. No command line needed.

why don’t you modernize its [Hugs’] source code so we can compile it with modern compiler?

WinHugs .exe you can download and run today. Easy. The source code is modern. I just downloaded from the Hugs site; unzipped; slurped into Vis Studio; and hit Build. No command line; less than half the time I’ve spent on MicroHS; for a Windows-friendly programming environment (WinHugs for the win). For all I know, you could slurp the source into Vis Studio 2026. [There were 3 FFI dlls that were unhappy; I just copied from the install.]
