Subject: ANN: "The Whitespace Thing" for OCaml
Date: Mon, 21 Nov 2005 17:40:44 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <2a1a1a0c0511211440r584f4e2fg3384f482f7c70b46@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi all,

Brace yourselves for "The Whitespace Thing". This is an OCaml
preprocessor that uses your indentation to group expressions, like in
Python and Haskell. Effectively, the preprocessor auto-parenthesizes
expressions that are split over multiple lines, using your indentation
as clues. This eliminates syntax clutter such as multi-line
parenthesizations, the sequencing operators ; and ;; , and the
keywords done, end, and begin.
