Line 47:
* atom: a symbol, string or number
* S-Expression: a sequence of atoms or S-Expressions separated by whitespace and surrounded by parentheses ()
do we need others? the rfc above introduces special syntax for hex, and base64 encodings, as well as length-prefix encodings, all of which i consider not needed. there are other standards for hex, and there are other encodings, so i don't see why they need to be treated special.
Line 245 ⟶ 246:
for the same reason a solution in lisp better ought to use a hash type when reading the data.

== Haskell version failing with GHC 7.10.3 and current Stack ==
Compilation failing with two errors at the moment:
# 'between' is not in scope. (Not included in the imports)
# "Precedence parsing error cannot mix ‘<?>’ [infix 0] and ‘<?>’ [infix 0] in the same infix expression"-- [[User:Hout|Hout]] ([[User talk:Hout|talk]]) 22:12, 27 April 2017 (UTC)
== JavaScript version bugfix for \" and \n in strings ==
I found that the present solution doesn't treat escaped double quotes and newlines in strings right (used in KiCad)
(property "ki_description" "Power symbol creates a global label with name \"GND\" ,\nexample new line")
See below for my "hack" for the procedural version. The functional version is too difficult to read for me - in any case, I hope that the original author comes back to fix it correctly, right now it just works for my purpose
String.prototype.parseSexpr = function () {
//schweick: modified first option in regexp to catch string containing \"
//I just trusted the expression from https://stackoverflow.com/a/30737232 (some others would not work):
var t = this.match(/\s*("(?:[^"\\]*(?:\\.)?)*"|\(|\)|"|[^\s()"]+)/g)
for (var o, c = 0, i = t.length - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
var n, ti = t[i].trim()
if (ti == '"') return
else if (ti == '(') t[i] = '[', c += 1
else if (ti == ')') t[i] = ']', c -= 1
else if ((n = +ti) == ti) t[i] = n
// schweick: inserted two replacements to double escape \", \n in strings
// which otherwise would loose their backslash in toPretty():
else t[i] = '\'' + ti.replace('\'', '\\\'').replace(/\\"/g, '\\\\"').replace(/\\n/g, '\\\\n') + '\''
if (i > 0 && ti != ']' && t[i - 1].trim() != '(') t.splice(i, 0, ',')
if (!c) if (!o) o = true; else return
}
return c ? undefined : eval(t.join(''))
}
Please delete my comment above when taken care of on the main page
