Question

I'm using OCamlWinPlus v1.9RC4. It sucks pretty hardcore. It's constantly crashing, and lacks basic features. What other toplevel OCaml programs can be recommended for Windows Vista?

Was it helpful?

Solution

You can use a Windows version of Emacs and use the customization files (*.el) provided with OCaml's source archive to turn Emacs in a powerful, if idiosyncratic, toplevel.

You'll find the instructions in ocaml-3.11.1/emacs/README. Specifically:

Once you have started caml by M-x run-caml:

M-C-x send phrase to inferior caml process C-c C-r send region to inferior caml process C-c C-s show inferior caml process C-c` goto error in expression sent by M-C-x

OTHER TIPS

I used ocaml from cmd. Editing with history is there..

Can you elaborate on ocamlwinplus crashes? Did you try to debug it?

I use Notepad++ to write code then I compile it from cmd, simply there is no simple way to do it with OCAML!
