If you are using Mac OS X 10.9 (Mavericks) you will need to compile
cairo with gcc, not clang. This can be done as follows:
```bash
brew install gcc48
cabal install cairo --with-gcc=gcc-4.8
```
Compilation Tools

Install the `happy` parser generator tool and `cpphs` preprocessor:

There is a test notebook in the `IHaskell` directory. To try it, run IHaskell with `IHaskell notebook --serve=IHaskell`.
If you get a pip error while IHaskell is installing Python
dependencies on the first run (it will look like
`EOFError: EOF when reading a line`), then you can do the following
after ensuring that pip >= 1.5 is installed:
```bash
env PIP_EXISTS_ACTION=w IHaskell notebook
```
If it *still* doesn't work and you are using Mac OS X then
`brew upgrade python`. Some older versions of Homebrew's Python have a
broken version of distutils. Homebrew's version of Python 2.7.6 *does* work.
**Note**: You may have some trouble due to browser caches with the notebook interface if you also use IPython's notebook interface or have used it in the past. If something doesn't work or IPython says it can't connect to the notebook server, make sure to clear the browser cache in whatever browser you're using, or try another browser.
