Abstract : Carlsson and Hallgren [1] describe the implementation of a set of "functional widgets " (Fudgets): components for programming graphical user interfaces under the X window system using the nonstrict functional programming language Haskell. We describe an alternative implementation based on existing widget sets (currently Openlook and Motif). Our purpose is twofold: to show that the Fudgets approach can be applied to existing widget sets; and to discuss problems experienced with Fudgets during an industrial case study. 1,
