Hello,

Thanks for eyebloom on #haskell for motivating me to finally implement an old idea. Thanks to the rest on #haskell for doing their best to talk me out of it. ;)

I make no claims regarding the usefulness of the extension, but some folks might find it interesting, or may just appreciate additional examples of using HSE and SYB. I regret that I am not a better Haskell coder, but it is what it is!

why couldn't you use standard brackets ( to delimit the extent ? I suppose that would have added complexity to the syntax analysis, however I think it would have been (in my mind) neater.
