Re: [Haskell-cafe] GHC Extension Proposal: ArgumentBlock

Very little changes. You can look at the changes to Parser.y on the Phabricator revision https://phabricator.haskell.org/D1219#72873ca7. In order to get this parsing sans any shift/reduce conflicts you have to introduce fexp2 as well as fexp, which makes it so that dollar-less lambdas/do blocks can only be applied as the last argument. -- Andrew On Mon, Sep 7, 2015 at 6:39 PM, Edward Kmett wrote:

Reserving judgment on the merits of the proposal, I would be curious to see the net impact of such a change on the grammar that GHC parses. How much changes?

Yes, but they still have to be able to read code that uses it, deal with it in coding standards, deal with how it affects their tool chain, and otherwise have it affect them.

"If you don't like it, don't use it" is a bogus argument, and should be shot on sight.
