Re: [hxournal] website doesn't explain what haskell, hackage & cabal are (#2)
Ian-Woo Kim
Thank you very much for your precious suggestions and comments! :D
Yes! I am going to write a better description and instruction for this.
Your description on haskell is very suggestive to me, so I will put it
there. Some day I have to write down and clear things up with
significant effort.
As for network support, I made it as a separate package and didn't put
the code in the main yet because I need some more clear idea. I am
going to write down something on the overall development plan some
time.
This is my first project of publishing a software (ah.. I had HROOT
before. ) I am inexperienced. I am very welcome to any comment.
best,
IW
