I'm trying this again! The comment for Megaparsec.makeExprParser refers to "parens". When I grep for "parens" in Megaparsec I get only two occurences, both of them in comments:

    ./Lexer.hs:-- > parens    = between (symbol "(") (symbol ")")
    ./Expr.hs:-- > term = parens expr <|> integer <?> "term"

If I try defining parens as in the comment from Lexer.hs, I get these errors:

    <interactive>:37:33:
        Couldn't match type ‘Char’ with ‘()’
        Expected type: [()]
          Actual type: [Char]
        In the first argument of ‘symbol’, namely ‘"("’
        In the first argument of ‘between’, namely ‘(symbol "(")’
        In the expression: between (symbol "(") (symbol ")")
    
    <interactive>:37:46:
        Couldn't match type ‘Char’ with ‘()’
        Expected type: [()]
          Actual type: [Char]
        In the first argument of ‘symbol’, namely ‘")"’
        In the second argument of ‘between’, namely ‘(symbol ")")’
        In the expression: between (symbol "(") (symbol ")")

For the expression parser, Megaparsec's documentation is wrong[*] and
probably it should use symbol rather than reservedOp. Note that symbol
is slightly different in Megaparsec as it's a plain combinator (rather
than one instantiated from a first class module as in Parsec) so it
takes two args rather than one.


[*] Well, likely wrong - I haven't got round to using Megaparsec yet.


You are right: https://github.com/mrkkrp/megaparsec/commit/750adb7c70392c3195eda12d816f4a1a2305321e
