In addition to numerous bug fixes, changes since the interim release in March 2005 include: - The default current module is now the empty module Hugs. - Compatibility libraries are present, but no longer included on the default search path. They will be removed in the next release. - Rewritten graphical Windows interface (contributed by Neil Mitchell). Further changes since the last major release in November 2003 include: - The Char type and the Char module now support Unicode as specified in the Haskell 98 Report (contributed by Dmitry Golubovsky). - The new -X option groups several options into one argument. - The syntax of the ffihugs command has changed: the +G and +L options are gone, and a new +i option can be used to specify include files. - Hugs now has basic support for Cabal. The home page for Hugs is at http://haskell.org/hugs. Send email to hugs-users-request@haskell.org to join the hugs-users mailing list. Bug reports should be sent to hugs-bugs@haskell.org.
