The Fudget Library
Version h12 Release Notes
SUMMARY OF CHANGES
This file describes the most important changes since
the previous release.
Changes from the 10th (May 96) to the 12th (Nov 96) hackers' release
The Fudgets Library can now be used with the following Haskell 1.3 compilers:
Apart from this, news in this release include:
- Fudgets can be used in the interactive system (hbi) on SunOS-5
and NetBSD. However, this needs shared versions of the libraries,
which are currently not included in the binary distributions.
If you want this, get the sources for hbc and
compile the stuff needed, or mail us.
- More fudgets allow graphics instead of just strings, e.g.,
menuF :: (Graphic a, Graphic c) => a -> [(b, c)] -> F b b
- Customisable versions of
toggleButtonF
and
radioGroupF
.
- Continued work fudgets and data types for graphics (see release h10).
This is still work in progress, and the documentation is far
from complete.
- The Fudget type
F
and the Fudget Kernel type
K
have been made abstract. (Before they were
instances of the stream processor type SP
.)
Operations allowed both in fudgets and kernels are now overloaded
in the new class FudgetIO.
