Announcement: Alex under new license and management.
Alex, the Haskell-based scanner-generator, has been relicensed with a BSD-style
license (it was under the GPL) in preparation for integration with Happy, the
Haskell-based parser generator. Isaac Jones has kindly and heroically
undertaken this task of integrating the two packages.
As the two packages work quite well as they are it is expected that the first
release of the combined packages will do little more than bundle them together,
but we have ambitions to go further, and to better adapt the run-time behaviour
of Alex-generated scanners to suit the big Haskell compilers such as GHC.
Until the integration has been completed the new home for Alex is
http://www.syntaxpolice.org/~ijones/alex/
Please email Isaac ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) if you have any queries.
Cheers,
Chris Dornan
