	            Haskell Ports Library	             -*-text-*-
		    =====================

The Haskell Ports Library (HPL) supports concurrent and distributed computing in the IO monad without relying on mutable variables. Instead, it supplies monotone single-assignment variables and ports abstractions. More details at

     http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~chak/haskell/ports/

Haskell is a state-of-the-art general purpose, purely functional programming language. It combines modern language design and a solid formal foundation with the features required for real-world programming - details are available at
