Module Sexp

module Sexp: sig .. end

Extensions to Sexplib.Sexp.

val is_atom : Core.Sexp.t -> bool

val is_list : Core.Sexp.t -> bool

Constructors

val atom : string -> Core.Sexp.t

val list : Core.Sexp.t list -> Core.Sexp.t

Printing

val to_string_hum' : Core.Sexp.t -> string

The ocaml pretty printer (used by sexplib) is a speed daemon but is, sadly enough, produces wrong output (e.g it overflows in places where this could have avoided). This uses a printer from wadler's a prettier printer to output strings suited to human consumption.

val format : Core.Sexp.t -> Pp.t

val pp_hum' : Format.formatter -> Core.Sexp.t -> unit

A more readable but less compact pretty printer than the one bundled by sexplib. This is going through a test period at which point it might make it in sexplib. It uses ocaml's pretty-printing library so it is both fast and broken.

val comment : string -> string

Takes a string and returns the same string but commented according to sexp's syntax

module Diff: sig .. end

Various

val print_diff : ?oc:Pervasives.out_channel -> Core.Sexp.t -> Core.Sexp.t -> unit

val summarize : Core.Sexp.t ->
       sub_sexp:Core.Sexp.t ->
       size:[ `depth of int | `string of int ] -> Core.Sexp.t

Returns a smaller sexp by replacing sections with "...". Will try to show parts of the sexp "near" sub_sexp.

Limiting size to length a string length is less efficient than a certain depth. The meaning of a given depth is arbitrary except that more depth gives you a bigger sexp. Try 100 or so.

val of_sexp_allow_extra_fields : (Core.Sexp.t -> 'a) -> Core.Sexp.t -> 'a

of_sexp_allow_extra_fields of_sexp sexp uses of_sexp to convert sexp to a value, but will not fail if there any extra fields in a record.

Transforming sexp parsers
