In the Haskell 1998 & 2010 reports, I found the names of the tokens for Haskell's lexical structure / syntax / grammar very hard to read, as they were highly abbreviated. I might get more familiar with them, but that doesn't help newcomers, like me now. Anyone mind if I change them to use full words? Mind if I separate the words with underscores? I made a few changes with simple find & replace, and it made it so much more readable. It did make the lines longer (duh!), but I see no reason for that to be much of a problem. Or would horizontal scroll and/or line-wrapping be too much of an issue? Where would the changes go, anyways?
Another thing that would be useful but could be harder to implement would be links from usages to declarations of tokens. Thanks, Solomon Ucko P.S. Please let me know if this has come up before, as I have just joined this list.
