It might be hard, or even impossible, to get Data.Typeable and Data.Generics to play with each other. There seems to be no good way of converting a Data.Typeable.TypeRep to a Data.Generics.Basics.DataType.


Another option might be to use Language.Haskell.Parser and Language.Haskell.Syntax, but I have little experience with this and am not sure if you'll be able to do what you want.
