We are pleased to announce the availability of the package "ChristmasTree", which contains the code associated with our paper at the last Haskell symposium: @inproceedings{1411296, author = {Marcos Viera and S. Doaitse Swierstra and Eelco Lempsink}, title = {Haskell, do you read me?: constructing and composing efficient top-down parsers at runtime}, booktitle = {Haskell '08: Proceedings of the first ACM SIGPLAN symposium on Haskell}, year = {2008}, isbn = {978-1-60558-064-7}, pages = {63--74}, location = {Victoria, BC, Canada}, doi = {http://doi.acm.org/10.1145/1411286.1411296}, publisher = {ACM}, address = {New York, NY, USA}, } The name of the package stands for: "Changing Haskell's Read Implementation Such That by Manipulating Abstract Syntax Trees it Reads Expressions Efficiently" which, given the time of year, seems appropriate. Feel free to download and unpack this "present" at what for the Dutch is called "Sinterklaasavond" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinterklaas), Arthur Baars Marcos Viera Eelco Lempsink Doaitse Swierstra PS: the package uses our library supporting transformation of typed abstract syntax, which we placed in a separate package TTTAS
