Hugs
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- "Hugs" the interpreter should not be confused with the physical gesture of hugging.
Hugs (Haskell User's Gofer System) (also Hugs 98) is a bytecode interpreter for the functional programming language Haskell. Hugs is the successor to Gofer, and was originally derived from Gofer version 2.30b.[1] It comes with a simple graphics library. As a complete Haskell implementation that is portable and simple to install, Hugs is often recommended for new Haskell users.
Hugs deviates from the Haskell 98 specification[2] in several minor ways.[3] For example, Hugs does not support mutually recursive modules.
The Hugs prompt accepts expressions for evaluation, but not module, type or function definitions. Hugs can load Haskell modules at start-up.[4]
