What Parsec used is called “FreeBSD” or “BSD 2 clause”. Addition of the
third clause may require contacting all the authors. To hell with it,
let it be “FreeBSD” (which is anyway better than “BSD-like”), I'm a
hacker, not a lawyer (tm).
This commit clarifies license of the software replacing “BSD3” with more
conventional “BSD 3 clause”.
Another change is addition of the third clause originally missing in
license of Parsec (which is licensed under BSD 2 clause license). The
addition of the third clause in form:
* Neither the names of the copyright holders nor the names of
contributors may be used to endorse or promote products derived from
this software without specific prior written permission.
does not violate original BSD 2 clause license effectively making it BSD
3 clause license (which I find preferable).
This patch introduces compatibility to base-4.7.0.x. It was tested
on Win 8.1 x86_64, using GHC 7.8.4. It mainly consists of a bunch
of #if !MIN_VERSION(4,8,0) ... #endif additions and a lower bound
on base in the cabal file as well as a general introduction of the
CPP extension via default-extensions.
It also removes a potential error source in tests/Util.hs, since
the backslash in /=\ can lead to strange quirks on certain systems
(backslash and newline only separated by whitespace).
Other, squashed commits:
- Remove 'recent version of base' from Readme
- Change necessary version of GHC
Closes#38.
Now tab width can be manipulated with via the following functions:
* ‘getTabWidth’
* ‘setTabWidth’
Other auxiliary changes were performed, such as updating of
‘updatePosChar’.
This also corrects a bit obsolete descriptions of some functions.
Closes#36.
We should try to preserve original information where possible. User then
can convert case of parsed string if necessary. Previous implementation
discarded actually parsed string and returned argument of the
function — this can be considered as data loss of a sort.
Closes#35.
Since ‘many’ (and thus ‘some’) are the only combinator that can succeed
consuming input and produce hints at the same time we can conclude that
‘cok'’ continuation in ‘pLabel’ combinator is only called when ‘many’ is
labelled. By correcting label in this case prepending the phrase “rest
of ” to actual label we can greatly improve result error message.
