The 1995 fall semester is finished, but I will leave the software installed and the online materials in place.
If you have any questions, please contact me (Prof. H.Conrad Cunningham).
The distribution kit for the PC version of Gofer 2.30b is available unpacked on the network at ftp://ftp.cs.olemiss.edu/pub/csci555/pc-gofer/ and packed at ftp://ftp.cs.olemiss.edu/pub/csci555/gofer/.
I have installed Gofer 2.30b and Hugs 1.0 on the FreeBSD systems Faser and Cy. On these systems, if directory /usr/local/bin is in your search path, the commands "gofer" and "hugs" start up the interpreter. Give the "man gofer" command to find out more about running the interpreter.
The Gofer demo programs can be found in directory /usr/local/lib/Gofer/demos on both systems Faser and Cy.
The installation kit for Gofer 2.30b can be found on the network at ftp://ftp.cs.olemiss.edu/pub/csci555. Similarly, the installation kit for Hugs 1.0 is at ftp://ftp.cs.olemiss.edu/pub/csci555/hugs/. Hugs, the Haskell Users' Gofer System, is a variation of Gofer that is more compatible with Haskell.
Note to those installing Gofer on Unix systems: I could not get the GNU readline library to work properly on Faser. Instead I used the editline package that I retrieved from the Usenet comp.sources.misc archive as explained in the Gofer and Hugs Makefiles. I stored the source for editline with the sources for Gofer and Hugs.
A version of Gofer for the Apple Macintosh is available from the University of Nottingham.
I unpacked Mark Jones' An Introduction to Gofer manual from the distribution kit and edited the LaTeX a bit to get a better output format. I put the resulting document on the Department's FTP site ftp://ftp.cs.olemiss.edu/pub/csci555/gofer/ in files of the form goferdoc.*.
The directory contains copies of the document in both Postscript and LaTeX dvi formats.
My lectures notes for this class are available as Technical Report UMCIS-1995-01, Notes on Functional Programming with Gofer. This document is available from the Department's technical report archive (ftp://ftp.cs.olemiss.edu/pub/tech-reports/) in either Postscript or LaTeX dvi formats.
I have made a copy of the paper The Implementation of the Gofer Functional Programming System by Mark P. Jones available via FTP at ftp://ftp.cs.olemiss.edu/pub/csci555/papers/. This is a Postscript file that has been compressed with gzip.
