Hugs on Mac with CW6 ? ... and Haskell Graphics Lib?

Perhaps I should admit a certain bias: GreenCard is partly my creation so I
have a soft spot for it...

H/Direct would be the tool of choice if you happen to have IDL descriptions of
the Mac graphical API.  Given Microsoft's interest in the Mac, it is possible
that these already exist.

Lacking an IDL description, my tool of choice would be to use the FFI directly
and use a suitable ffi library to take care of the tedium (and/or to use c2hs)
GreenCard would probably never have come into existence if the current ffi
specification had already existed.
