Ghci for Mac OSX?

[Dave Bayer]

You must be having some kind of path issue, ghci is surely there.

Here's what I see on my office iMac:

> home % echo $PATH
> /usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/texbin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/ 
> sbin:/Local/bin
>
> home % which ghci
> /usr/bin/ghci
>
> home % cat `which ghci`
> #!/bin/sh
> exec /Library/Frameworks/GHC.framework/Versions/610/usr/bin/ 
> ghc-6.10.1 --interactive ${1+"$@"}

In other words, ghci is a script in /usr/bin pointing to the actual  
installation, which is handled as a Framework. Just another place to  
stash stuff, different than what one does in Linux.

Echo $PATH, watch for spaces in volume names (who knows!?), see if the  
"real" file is there, do the above also for ghc itself to see where it  
ended up. I'm sure it will be something simple...
