Dependencies

• Yesod

• Hoogle (/Users/abi/Library/Haskell/ghc-7.0.3/lib/hoogle-4.2.8/bin) — The Hoogle executable ought to be in the path but not just in .bashrc but also, symlinked in /usr/bin/. Probably because createProcess runs sh, rather than bash? Or createProcess only looks in /usr/bin.

Running

build with:

cabal configure
cabal build

run with:

./dist/build/ghci-in-a-new-dress/ghci-in-a-new-dress

or:

cabal install
ghci-in-a-new-dress

then open a browser and go to http://127.0.0.1:3000/
