Manatee

Introduction

Manatee is Haskell integrated environment written in Haskell.

The goal of the Manatee project is to provide a fast, safe and flexible integrated environment for haskell hacking.

You can consider it is new environment mix Gnome and Emacs. Like Gnome to provide friendly graphics interface and work efficient like Emacs.

Manatee use multi-processes framework, any sub-module running in separate process to protected core won't crash. So it minimize your losses when some unexpected exception throw in extension.

Installation

Below is build step for Manatee:

1) Install GHC compiler http://www.haskell.org/ghc/download_ghc_6_12_3.html:

Download ghc package for your system, then do below command :

./configure && sudo make install

2) Install C library: In Debian use below command:

sudo aptitude install libgtksourceview2.0-dev libgconf2-dev libwebkit-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libgtkimageview-dev libpoppler-glib-dev poppler-data libtagc0-dev -y

3) Install cabal:

If you're haskell newbie, use below command to install cabal (haskell expert ignore this):

sudo aptitude install cabal-install -y

4) Install dependent Haskell library:

First make sure HOME/.cabal/bin/ in your PATH

Generic way is add `PATH=$PATH:~/.cabal/bin` in your ~/.bashrc

Then do below command (NOTE: don't use root permission with cabal, otherwise Manatee can't work):

cabal update && cabal install happy c2hs gtk2hs-buildtools glib gio pango cairo gtk

5) Install Manatee (same, don't use root permission):

cabal install manatee-core manatee-anything manatee-browser manatee-editor manatee-filemanager manatee-imageviewer manatee-ircclient manatee-mplayer manatee-pdfviewer manatee-processmanager manatee-reader manatee

That's all, then type command manatee to play it! :)

Now Manatee looks can't work in XMonad, i'm working on it. It's no problem if you use Gnome.

Quick start

When you first run manatee, it will show a Global Search menu In search menu, it will search different kind candidate for your input.

Example, when you type http://www.google.com in it, it will show Browser candidate for you, then you hit RETURN or "Alt + m" will open link in browser.

If you type Haskell filepath, example, /path/Haskell.hs, manatee will call editor module to open /path/Haskell.hs

You can type pdf filepath to open in pdf viewer module, image filepath is same.

You also can type directory to open in file manager.
