The docs for manyTill at
http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/attoparsec/0.9.1.2/doc/html/Data-
Attoparsec-Combinator.html
have the example
simpleComment = string "<!--" *> manyTill anyChar (try (string "-->"))
modifying the comment delimiters is trivial, modifying it to parse nested
comments would be nontrivial, but still not too difficult, I think.
