Re: [Haskell-cafe] Call for discussion: OverloadedLists extension

Maybe what's needed is a way to mutate the lexer by adding new kinds of literals; Unicode offers a number of paired brackets and quote-like characters. Although that is likely to get into readability issues especially if you do have a mixture of [Char], ByteString, and Text for some reason. (Map vs. [] is probably easy enough but add another one or two in and the sam problem rears its head quickly.) -- brandon s allbery allbery.b@gmail.com wandering unix systems administrator (available) (412) 475-9364 vm/sms
