string :: Stream s m Char => String -> ParsecT s u m String

parsec Text.Parsec.Char Text.ParserCombinators.Parsec.Char

string s parses a sequence of characters given by s. Returns the parsed string (i.e. s).

divOrMod    =   string "div"
<|> string "mod"

Consider using string'.

module Text.Parsec.String

parsec

Make Strings an instance of Stream with Char token type.

string' :: Stream s m Char => String -> ParsecT s u m String

parsec Text.Parsec.Char

string' s parses a sequence of characters given by s. Doesn't consume matching prefix.

carOrCdr    =   string' "car"
<|> string' "cdr"

stringLiteral :: GenTokenParser s u m -> ParsecT s u m String

parsec Text.Parsec.Token Text.ParserCombinators.Parsec.Token

This lexeme parser parses a literal string. Returns the literal string value. This parsers deals correctly with escape sequences and gaps. The literal string is parsed according to the grammar rules defined in the Haskell report (which matches most programming languages quite closely).

module Text.Parsec.ByteString

parsec

Convenience definitions for working with ByteStrings.

messageString :: Message -> String

parsec Text.Parsec.Error Text.ParserCombinators.Parsec.Error

Extract the message string from an error message

updatePosString :: SourcePos -> String -> SourcePos

parsec Text.Parsec.Pos Text.ParserCombinators.Parsec.Pos

The expression updatePosString pos s updates the source position pos by calling updatePosChar on every character in s, ie. foldl updatePosChar pos string.
