I try to hack together a PEG-parser then given that this code is in 2.2. Are there any PEG-parser examples I can look at in/outside Guix? -- Cheers Swedebugia

Hello, swedebugia skribis: > This morning I began to write a quicklisp importer using Daves > guile-parser-combinators [1] to create a parser for the > space-separated-csv files. In general we have to think twice before adding new dependencies to Guix. To parse CSV files, I think you can probably do using the string utilities already available in Guile; that would avoid adding a new dependency. WDYT? (That said I agree that Dave’s parser combinators are nice, perhaps time to add a package for them? :-)) Thanks, Ludo’.
