But this doesn't work.

"getInput" does not consume any input but just returns the remaining input. Therefore it is called infinitely often. If your input were String you could use "anyChar" instead. I don't know how to do it with ByteString (maybe parsec-3?).

I get a stack overflow. Obviously I'm not understanding something here. Are there any good examples of open source projects which parse ByteString data ?

thanks in advance,
