Text.PrettyPrint
Contents
Description
Provides a collection of pretty printer combinators, a set of API's that provides a way to easily print out text in a consistent format of your choosing.
This module should be used as opposed to the HughesPJ
 module. Both are equivalent though as this module simply re-exports the
 other.

The document type
The abstract type of documents. A Doc represents a set of layouts. A Doc with no occurrences of Union or NoDoc represents just one layout.
Constructing documents
Converting values into documents
sizedText :: Int -> String -> Doc Source #
Some text with any width. (text s = sizedText (length s) s)
zeroWidthText :: String -> Doc Source #
Some text, but without any width. Use for non-printing text such as a HTML or Latex tags
Simple derived documents
Wrapping documents in delimiters
Combining documents
($$) :: Doc -> Doc -> Doc infixl 5 Source #
Above, except that if the last line of the first argument stops at least one position before the first line of the second begins, these two lines are overlapped. For example:
text "hi" $$ nest 5 (text "there")
lays out as
hi there
rather than
   hi
        therenest :: Int -> Doc -> Doc Source #
Nest (or indent) a document by a given number of positions
 (which may also be negative).  nest satisfies the laws:
- nest0 x = x
- nestk (- nestk' x) =- nest(k+k') x
- nestk (x- <>y) =- nestk z- <>- nestk y
- nestk (x- $$y) =- nestk x- $$- nestk y
- nestk- empty=- empty
- x, if- <>- nestk y = x- <>y- xnon-empty
The side condition on the last law is needed because
 empty is a left identity for <>.
punctuate :: Doc -> [Doc] -> [Doc] Source #
punctuate p [d1, ... dn] = [d1 <> p, d2 <> p, ... dn-1 <> p, dn]
Predicates on documents
Rendering documents
Default rendering
Rendering with a particular style
A rendering style. Allows us to specify constraints to choose among the many different rendering options.

General rendering
Arguments
| :: Mode | Rendering mode. | 
| -> Int | Line length. | 
| -> Float | Ribbons per line. | 
| -> (TextDetails -> a -> a) | What to do with text. | 
| -> a | What to do at the end. | 
| -> Doc | The document. | 
| -> a | Result. | 
The general rendering interface. Please refer to the Style and Mode
 types for a description of rendering mode, line length and ribbons.
Rendering mode.
Constructors
| PageMode | Normal rendering ( | 
| ZigZagMode | With zig-zag cuts. | 
| LeftMode | No indentation, infinitely long lines ( | 
| OneLineMode | All on one line,  | 
data TextDetails Source #
A TextDetails represents a fragment of text that will be output at some
 point in a Doc.
Constructors
| Chr !Char | A single Char fragment | 
| Str String | A whole String fragment | 
| PStr String | Used to represent a Fast String fragment but now deprecated and identical to the Str constructor. |
