@Dennis Can you add BlooP and FlooP?

What's the difference between BlooP and FlooP? There's only one interpreter in the tarball.

@Dennis They're really similar, but FlooP supports loops and is turing complete

The interpreter doesn't let you pick a flavor though.

So BlooP is just a subset of FlooP

@Dennis I guess it's just FlooP then, that also happens to support BlooP.

And it's called bloop. Not confusing at all...

In an unsurprising turn of events, the 11 year old Haskell doesn't compile out of the box. :/

ghc --make -fglasgow-exts -o bloop Main

Ooh! I know this one! You have to make it be System.IO

I don't know Haskell but I had this exact problem not too long ago

That worked, in the sense that I now got a new error.

ghc --make -fglasgow-exts -o bloop Main

on the commandline: warning:

PPrint.hs:110:24: error:
    Ambiguous occurrence ‘<$>’
    It could refer to either ‘Prelude.<$>’,
                             imported from ‘Prelude’ at PPrint.hs:36:8-13
                             (and originally defined in ‘Data.Functor’)
                          or ‘PPrint.<$>’, defined at PPrint.hs:124:3

Mm, don't know that one.

I'm guessing it's PPrint.<$> since Prelude.<$> is new

Same deal with empty.

If there's any conflicts between PPrint and Prelude it's probably something new in Prelude and the author intended the PPrting version

After many replacements and a missing package, I'm now at this.

Main.lhs:30:26: error:
    Module ‘System.IO.Error’ does not export ‘try’

Is there a way to instead make ghc to compile as Haskell 98 ...

It looks like the new name for IO.Error.try is either tryIOError from System.IO.Error or try from Control.Exception

tryIOError seems to work.

I'll have to make a repo for this.

@user202729 There's -package haskell98, but I've never had any luck with it.

Try passing -XHaskell98 or including {-# LANGUAGE Haskell98 #-}?

My SSH connections keep dying on me. I'll have to leave this for later.

bloop: user error (Internal compiler error.)

Aswesome.

well, dunno

That error message couldn't be less helpful if it actively tried...

Have you tried the {-# LANGUAGE Haskell98 #-} thing?

I'd have to install haskell98 first.

I could try that on a secondary server tonight.

@Dennis Can you pull Whispers v2 please?

@cairdcoinheringaahing Done.

@Dennis Thanks!

@Dennis Can you pull it again please?
