+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 We are pleased to announce a new major release of the Glasgow Haskell
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 Compiler (GHC), version 5.00. The source distributi\hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 on is freely
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 available via the World-Wide Web and through anon. FTP, under a
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 BSD-style license. See below for download details. Pre-built
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 packages for Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris and Win32 are also available.
+\par
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 Haskell is a standard lazy functional progr\hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 amming language; the
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 current language version is Haskell 98, agreed in December 1998.
+\par
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 GHC is a state-of-the-art programming suite for Haskell. Included is
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 an optimising compiler generating good code for a variety of
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 platforms, together with an inter\hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 active system for convenient, quick
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 development. The distribution includes space and time profiling
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 facilities, a large collection of libraries, and support for various
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 language extensions, including concurrency, exceptions, and foreign
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 language inter\hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 faces (C, C++, whatever).
+\par
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 A wide variety of Haskell related resources (tutorials, libraries,
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 specifications, documentation, compilers, interpreters, references,
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 contact information, links to research groups) are available from the

+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 5.00 has been majorly revamped since the previous stable version, 4.08.2.
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 This should be a stable release. Major ch\hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 anges since 4.08.2 are:
+\par
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 - An interactive system, similar in style to Hugs. You can interactively
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 load and unload modules, run expressions, ask the types of things.
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 Module dependencies are tracked and chased automatically.
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 Combinati\hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 ons of compiled and interpreted modules may be used.
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 All the GHC libraries are available in interactive mode, as are
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 most of the Glasgow extensions to Haskell 98. Compilation in
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 interactive mode (to bytecode) is about three times faster \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 than
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 compiling to object code.
+\par
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 - Batch compilation of multiple modules at once, with automatic
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 dependency chasing. For large programs this can halve compilation
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 times, and removes the need for Makefiles.
+\par
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 - Enhanced package (l\hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 ibrary) management system. Packages may be
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 installed and removed from an installation using the ghc-pkg tool.
+\par
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 - Initial Unicode support - the Char type is now 31 bits.
+\par
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 - Sparc native code generator, giving much faster compilation on spar\hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 cs.
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 (Native code generation for x86s has been available for a while).
+\par
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 - Improved heap profiling - you can restrict heap profiles
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 by type, closure description, cost centre, and module.
+\par
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 - Support for the latest Foreign Function Interf\hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 ace (FFI)
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 proposals. Marcin Kowalczyk's hsc2hs tool is included.
+\par
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 - Language extensions: parallel list comprehensions and functional
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 dependencies.
+\par
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 - The usual huge collection of bug fixes. Most reported bugs have
+\par \hich\af27\dbch\af23\loch\f27 been fixed.
