[HOpenGL] Haskell or C First?

[Isaac Dupree]

The Haskell OpenGL binding is one of the best OpenGL bindings around... 
I find it slightly nicer to use than the native C bindings, and with no 
loss of power (it's a pretty direct mapping to OpenGL; just a few things 
like glBegin()/glEnd() are made more Haskell-idiomatic IIRC).

What kind of application though? That probably makes more difference in 
this case than the OpenGL.
