Description

This module defines classes and functions for pretty-printing. It also exports a number of helpful debugging and other utilities such as trace and panic.

The interface to this module is very similar to the standard Hughes-PJ pretty printing module, except that it exports a number of additional functions that are rarely used, and works over the SDoc type.

class Outputable a => OutputableBndr a where
When we print a binder, we often want to print its type too. The OutputableBndr class encapsulates this idea.

Pretty printing combinators
type SDoc = PprStyle -> Doc
docToSDoc :: Doc -> SDoc
interppSP :: Outputable a => [a] -> SDoc
Returns the seperated concatenation of the pretty printed things.
interpp'SP :: Outputable a => [a] -> SDoc
Returns the comma-seperated concatenation of the pretty printed things.
pprQuotedList :: Outputable a => [a] -> SDoc

Returns the comma-seperated concatenation of the quoted pretty printed things.

 [x,y,z]  ==>  `x', `y', `z'

Join two SDoc together horizontally with a gap between them

Concatenate SDoc horizontally
hsep :: [SDoc] -> SDoc
Concatenate SDoc horizontally with a space between each one
($$) :: SDoc -> SDoc -> SDoc
Join two SDoc together vertically; if there is no vertical overlap it dovetails the two onto one line
($+$) :: SDoc -> SDoc -> SDoc
Join two SDoc together vertically
vcat :: [SDoc] -> SDoc
Concatenate SDoc vertically with dovetailing
sep :: [SDoc] -> SDoc
Separate: is either like hsep or like vcat, depending on what fits
cat :: [SDoc] -> SDoc
Catenate: is either like hcat or like vcat, depending on what fits
fsep :: [SDoc] -> SDoc
A paragraph-fill combinator. It's much like sep, only it keeps fitting things on one line until it can't fit any more.
fcat :: [SDoc] -> SDoc
This behaves like fsep, but it uses <> for horizontal conposition rather than <+>
hang
:: SDocThe header
-> IntAmount to indent the hung body
-> SDocThe hung body, indented and placed below the header
-> SDoc
punctuate
:: SDocThe punctuation
-> [SDoc]The list that will have punctuation added between every adjacent pair of elements
-> [SDoc]Punctuated list
speakNth :: Int -> SDoc

Converts an integer to a verbal index:

 speakNth 1 = text "first"
 speakNth 5 = text "fifth"
 speakNth 21 = text "21st"
speakNTimes :: Int -> SDoc

Converts a strictly positive integer into a number of times:

 speakNTimes 1 = text "once"
 speakNTimes 2 = text "twice"
 speakNTimes 4 = text "4 times"
speakN :: Int -> SDoc

Converts an integer to a verbal multiplicity:

 speakN 0 = text "none"
 speakN 5 = text "five"
 speakN 10 = text "10"
speakNOf :: Int -> SDoc -> SDoc

Converts an integer and object description to a statement about the multiplicity of those objects:

 speakNOf 0 (text "melon") = text "no melons"
 speakNOf 1 (text "melon") = text "one melon"
 speakNOf 3 (text "melon") = text "three melons"
plural :: [a] -> SDoc

Determines the pluralisation suffix appropriate for the length of a list:

 plural [] = char 's'
 plural ["Hello"] = empty
 plural ["Hello", "World"] = char 's'
