GF.Text.Pretty provides the class Pretty and overloaded versions of the pretty
printing combinators in Text.PrettyPrint, allowing pretty printable values to
be used directly instead of first having to convert them to Doc with functions
like text, int, char and ppIdent. Some modules have been converted to use
GF.Text.Pretty, but not all. Precedences could be added to simplify the pretty
printers for terms and patterns.
GF.Infra.Location contains the types Location and L, factored out from
GF.Grammar.Grammar, and the class HasSourcePath. This allowed the import
of GF.Grammar.Grammar to be removed from GF.Infra.CheckM, making it more
like a pure library module.
PGF exports the public, stable API.
PGF.Internal exports additional things needed in the GF compiler & shell,
including the nonstardard version of Data.Binary.
+ References to modules under src/compiler have been eliminated from the PGF
library (under src/runtime/haskell). Only two functions had to be moved (from
GF.Data.Utilities to PGF.Utilities) to make this possible, other apparent
dependencies turned out to be vacuous.
+ In gf.cabal, the GF executable no longer directly depends on the PGF library
source directory, but only on the exposed library modules. This means that
there is less duplication in gf.cabal and that the 30 modules in the
PGF library will no longer be compiled twice while building GF.
To make this possible, additional PGF library modules have been exposed, even
though they should probably be considered for internal use only. They could
be collected in a PGF.Internal module, or marked as "unstable", to make
this explicit.
+ Also, by using the -fwarn-unused-imports flag, ~220 redundant imports were
found and removed, reducing the total number of imports by ~15%.
+ Preserve the startcat flag.
+ Preserve judgement order when possible (GF's parser does not preserve order
and does not record exact source locations, only line numbers)
This is an experimental feature. It requires server support for parsing and is
thus not available while offline, unlike most other editing functionality.
