By the way, it should be possible to handle regular expressions in an
Haskell-like way. I always couldn't understand why one has to write regular
expressions as strings which have to be interpreted at runtime. I would
prefer something like this:
identifierRegExp = alpha +++ iterate (alpha ||| digit ||| underscore)
alpha = ('A' `to` 'Z') ||| ('a' `to` 'z')
digit = '0' `to` '9'
underscore = only '_'
What do others think?
