fltkhs-0.4.0.3: README.md

Fltkhs - A Haskell Binding to the FLTK GUI Library
=============================================

Fltkhs aims to be a complete Haskell binding to the [FLTK GUI library] [1].

NOTE: As of version 0.4.0.0, due to the introduction of closed type families, only GHC >= 7.8.1 is supported.

Abbreviated installation instructions are for Linux and Mac are:

- Download [FLTK 1.3.3] [2].
- Install with:
```
    > ./configure --enable-shared
    > make
    > make install
```

- Clone and install this repo:
```
    > git clone https://github.com/deech/fltkhs
    cabal install
```

- Test your installation by invoking: 'fltkhs-buttons'.

The rest of the documentation (including installation instructions for Windows and API usage) is located in the [FLTKHS module] [3]. This is the primary module that needs to be imported by every Fltkhs app and the entry point into the application.

A number of demos are also available in the [fltkhs-demos] [4] and the [fltkhs-fluid-demos] [5] packages.
