Thanks, I'll get an IRC client and give that a try.

No, if you do, it will complain, "can't find
'-lLibName'".  I don't know why, since it's a port of
the same program....

I found the MissingH binding, which looks ok, but
doesn't  expose what I want to use; for instance it's
I/O is string-only, and doesn't have cursor support. 
Besides, while I'm not a great Haskell hacker, I'm
pretty ok in C++, and figure I can contribute to the
community via making bindings available, and will
probably think of other things I also want to
integrate to, so I really want to learn the FFI.
