[Moose-dev] parser for beginning of a line

Hi,

I have a case of a language that uses a line based syntax.

Here is an example: ' label1 => any kind of text on many lines label2 => more text on many lines label3 => more text'

This should get 3 key-value pairs.

My current solution goes like this: key := #newline asParser , ('=>' asParser / #newline asParser) negate star , '=>' asParser. p := (key trimBlanks, key negate star flatten) star.

However, this is quite ugly. One idea to make it simpler would be to have a parser for the beginning of the line. What do you think?

Cheers, Doru
