Excerpts from Greg Fitzgerald's message of Mon Dec 14 18:44:37 -0500 2009:
It's too bad that the 'nat' function in Token is not defined in Parsec's Char module, and because of that, you need to copy-paste that code or roll your own.
"Maybe I should write a patch for that."
That's correct. Sounds to me like you shouldn't bother creating a tokenizer. You might even be able to get away with using the regex library instead of Parsec.
I think, even in a situation when I could use strictly regexes, I would still opt to use Parsec. Composability and maintainability man! Maybe I should add semicolons to the syntax to demarcate records, and then convert everything to token-style parsing. Edward
