Re: [wxhaskell-users] Working guide for wxWidgets and wxHaskell on Mac OS X Lion 64 bit

[Eric K. <eri...@gm...>]

Sorry, just one more follow-up.

4. I've published my branch at http://darcsden.com/kowey/wxhaskell-osx64 (in the process I've renamed the two WIP patches and simplified the build to only look for wxWidgets 2.9)

Note that this work is very far behind Dave and Jeremy's efforts.  I'm hoping it'll eventually be obsolete in some future when we've merged everything we need to merge.

Thanks,

Eric
