[Haskell-cafe] Useful IDE features - Accessibility considerations

[peterv]

Well, yes and no. 

 

Such an IDE does not have to follow the guidelines, because as you said,
these are “flexible”. Take Microsoft Office 2007, completely new GUI,
shocked the world. 

 

But take Eclipse. This is a fairly standard GUI, mostly the same on unix,
mac, and Windows.  

 

IMHO, for a Windows user coming from Visual Basic, Visual Studio, Borland
Delphi, etc, switching to Eclipse is much easier than switching to emacs.

 

Or take the Concurrent Clean IDE. Totally not a windows GUI. But easy to get
started with. Just install, open an example, select run and off you go.

Hi
not sure if this is a real project to build a Haskell IDE ... adherence to
the MS accessibility guidelines.  Ironically the VS environement  seems to
deviate from the corporation's own advice to the rest of the world.
