Need parser #1

Closed michaeljklein closed 8 years ago

michaeljklein commented 8 years ago

Need to decide whether to roll my own parser

pros: quick, small, focused
cons: would take a while, bonus features if use preexisting

It would probably be best to hand parse a few examples until fully needed.

Using Language.C.Parser. It should have all the tools I need and parsing C is a pain. Additionally, as I hadn't decided to use POSIX pipes in C when I opened this issue, I didn't know of other details that will be helped by using Language.C (such as pointer types, easy struct parsing, and a head start on making a C pipe reader/writer code generator).
