The first time it runs Leksah indexes all your source so it can take some
time (even if it is only looking in .hi files).  It can take some time.
 Unfortunately it currently writes progress and errors to the console. Can
you please try again, but launch Leksah from a terminal window with...

/Applications/Leksah.app/Contents/MacOS/Leksah

Oops not sure how that happened.  I'll try to make sure it is in the next
one.

runhaskell Setup build compiles 56/56 modules OK, but then a linker failure:

ld: library not found for -lgtk-x11-2.0

Do you think gtk2hs might be built against the x11 variant of GTK?  Can you
try rebuilding that with the quartz variant active?
