I think this mailing list is long defunct.

Anyway, I am actually a Mac user, too.  I think GUI library support  
for Macs is rather underdeveloped in Haskell right now :/  There is no  
particular reason, except that nobody put in the required work.  This  
is for Mac-specific GUI support.  If you are willing to go via X11,  
the Gtk2Hs bindings <http://www.haskell.org/gtk2hs/> work on Mac OS X,  
too.

There used to be a project developing a Haskell to Objective-C bridge

   http://hoc.sourceforge.net/

which makes it reasonably easy to get at Mac OS libraries, but  
unfortunately nobody has maintained that for a while.

If you'd like to do something to improve this situation, that'd be  
great.

Cheers,
Manuel
