Thanks for your reply, but
no, when I compile them with ghc and apply macosx-app which comes with th=
e
binary distr. of wxhaskell v0.4 I get the same result - just a blank wind=
ow.
When I use macosx-app built from the source of wxhaskell v0.9.4 the sampl=
e
program seems to need the Mac Classic environment, which I have not insta=
lled
at the moment. But I just learned that it is possible to install a classi=
c
folder on an existing OS X. I think I will give it a try except you still=
 have
a better idea.
