Cool! It's also written in Haskell. I always wanted to take a closer look at that language and this project seems just about the right size!

Just be aware that this was my first proglang project as well as my first Haskell project.

What worked well was unit testing and Haskell. What didn't work as well was inventing adhoc solutions instead of standard compiler techniques like DFA/CFG, and not writing more and better DSLs (in the form of monadic APIs) since they're cheap and convenient.
