Does anyone know of any existing Parser parsers that don't consume their entire input, or am I probably best off making my own parser.
Thomas Zielonka published his Parsec combinator lazyMany on this list a couple of times, Google for it. Here is my application of his idea: lazyMany :: Parser a -> SourceName -> String -> [a] lazyMany p filename contents = lm state0 where Right state0 = parse getParserState filename contents -- get an initial state lm state = either (error . show) id (parse p' "" "") where p' = setParserState state >> choice [eof >> return [], do x <- p state' <- getParserState return (x:lm state')] -- Feri.
