Goal: a library that extends nom to provide better tools for text formats (programming languages, configuration files).

Recognizing line and column in input data: nom-locate

Using nom-supreme

parsers need to be fault tolerant: recovering from the current error allows parsing the rest of the file: https://eyalkalderon.com/blog/nom-error-recovery/

We should also allow for various error levels (like warnings, that would not stop compilation)

precedence rules can be annoying to write

• precedence support: rust-bakery/nom#1362

most language parsers end up calling themselves recursively, resulting in stack overflow issues

if we have error spans, we should be able to display more context, like rustc's errors

• https://github.com/zesterer/ariadne
• https://github.com/brendanzab/codespan

should we support multiple phases, with &str -> Vec<Token> functions followed by &[Token] -> AST functions?
