Student question

[Robert McGirr]

I am doing a project using Haskell for a class surveying many languages. I am doing this on a Win7 64bit machine. I downloaded the Haskell Platform and then leksah. When I start it I get messages after the server start that say the metadata collector has nothing to do and then has finished, and several packageinfo not found for cache, is, out, of and Files. It then updates workspace metadata and finishes.

I have never used anything other than VS and C++ so I'm just wondering if there is something I need to do before I start trying some Haskell. Sorry for my complete unfamiliarity with this kind of environment but any help is appreciated.

leksah is a useful plattform for haskell development. it requires some
learning - if you just want to do one haskell program for a class
project survey of languages, just using an editor and haskell ghci may
be more practical.
given that you have installed leksah, see if it does what you want with
a reading of the leksah manual. if not, i would go to editor and ghci
for a small and one time project.
i am a heavy user of leksah and recommend it to all my students (but
they do at least a semester of haskell projecst)
