Haskell is a standardized purely functional programming language with non-strict semantics, named after the logician Haskell Curry. It is one of the more popular functional languages, and the lazy functional language on which the most research is being performed.

This is a development project for openSUSE:Factory that contains only the most essential tools to set up a Haskell development environment, like ghc, cabal-install, and their respective dependencies. This repository is supposed to be small and manageable.

Haskell is the standard purely functional programming language; the
current language version is Haskell 98, agreed in December 1998.

GHC is a state-of-the-art programming suite for Haskell. Included is
an optimising compiler generating good code for a variety of
platforms, together with an interactive system for convenient, quick
development. The distribution includes space and time profiling
facilities, a large collection of libraries, and support for various
language extensions, including concurrency, exceptions, and foreign
language interfaces (C, C++, etc).

A wide variety of Haskell related resources (tutorials, libraries,
specifications, documentation, compilers, interpreters, references,
contact information, links to research groups) are available from the
Haskell home page at http://www.haskell.org/.

This package provides a higher-level interface over threads, in which an Async a is a concurrent thread that will eventually deliver a value of type a. The package provides ways to create Async computations, wait for their results, and cancel them.

Using Async is safer than using threads in two ways:

When waiting for a thread to return a result, if the thread dies with an exception then the caller must either re-throw the exception (wait) or handle it (waitCatch); the exception cannot be ignored.

The API makes it possible to build a tree of threads that are automatically killed when their parent dies (see withAsync).

This package provides wrappers for primitive array operations from GHC.Prim.

hscolour is a small Haskell script to colourise Haskell code. It currently has six output formats: ANSI terminal codes (optionally XTerm-256colour codes), HTML 3.2 with font tags, HTML 4.01 with CSS, HTML 4.01 with CSS and mouseover annotations, XHTML 1.0 with inline CSS styling, LaTeX, and mIRC chat codes.
