Maybe that could be simplified and something could be based on that.
A one-liner using PCRE regex might also be of use.
Unless it can be performed with astounding dexterity, I don't think try to beat, for example, Perl at its own game will produce worthwhile results. What, instead, is Haskell's unique selling point? Non-strictness? Purity? Optional, composable, computation styles (ie, drop-in monads for non-determinism, continuations, state etc)? Succinct and elegant syntax? Something else? Cheers, D.
