The command "ghcup install cabal" is used to install Cabal, which is a build tool for Haskell programming language.
Here is a breakdown of the command:
-
"ghcup" is a command-line tool that is used to manage the installation of the Glasgow Haskell Compiler (GHC) and related tools. It stands for "GHC Updater" or "GHC Universal Package Manager".
-
"install" is a subcommand of "ghcup" that is used to install different tools or components of Haskell programming language.
-
"cabal" is the tool that is being installed using this command. Cabal is used for managing Haskell packages, building projects, and handling dependencies.
By running this command, the "ghcup" tool will download and install the latest version of Cabal on your system. Once the installation is complete, you will be able to use the "cabal" command from the command line to manage your Haskell packages and build projects.
