You want to avoid state at any cost, even more so if the state would influence parsing: spaghetti and headaches lay ahead. In the end I did three passes: two times parsec and one time something similar to accumMap. Now that I'm thinking of it, it would be nice if parsec supported spans in source positions, so that you can report errors like XYZ at foo.bar line 3 column 2 in ZYX spanning line 2-4 column 34-20. -- (c) this sig last receiving data processing entity.
