I'm currently getting Paolo Martini's Google Summer of Code project, an updated version of Parsec, into a releasable state, and I will be maintaining it for at least a while. Paolo's major additions are: * The Parser monad has been generalized into a Parser monad transformer * The parsers have been generalized to work over a stream of any type, in particular, with bytestrings. I have made a few minor additions as well: * There is Haddock documentation for almost all functions * The Parser monad now has Applicative/Alternative instances Currently, I am looking for people to give it a go reporting any bugs in the library or documentation, troubles building it, or changes/features they would like. I'm also interested in performance information. Most old Parsec code should be relatively easy but not trivial to port. There is a darcs repository on code.haskell.org. If nothing comes up, I'll put a package on Hackage in about a week or so. To get the code: darcs get http://code.haskell.org/ To build it, the standard cabal commands should work: http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Cabal/How_to_install_a_Cabal_package Alternatively, you can use the cabal-install application: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/wiki/CabalInstall The documentation can be generated also via the normal cabal routine, or via cabal-install.
