Found the problem in Sigbj=F8rn Finne's FAQ at =
http://www.dcs.gla.ac.uk/~sof/ghc-win32-faq.html: I had no /bin, only a =
/usr/bin. I've gotten hello world to compile so I'm off and running. If =
5.00 wasn't switching to a Haskell driver I'd suggest updating the GHC =
installation on windows page with this FAQ. -- Dave

Subject: win32 4.08.2 install question
While waiting for 5.00 for win32 I thought I'd get started with 4.08.2 - =
downloaded it today and installed it and the latest cygwin as per =
instructions. However: When following the "test the fruits of your =
labour" I invoke "ghc -o main main.hs" and get back a bash prompt and =
that's all. No files created, e.g., no main. Same for "ghc -c =
main.hs". Something trivial must be wrong with my setup. I've copied =
the ghc/bin/perl to cygwin/bin. No spaces in any directories (ghc is =
installed at c:\ghc). My mounted dirs look like this:
C:\Cygwin\bin>mount
Device Directory Type Flags
c:\Cygwin\bin /usr/bin user textmode
c:\Cygwin\etc /etc user textmode
c:\Cygwin\lib /usr/lib user textmode
c: / user textmode
Anybody have an idea what's going on? I can't wait to get 5.00 and its =
integral driver!
