[Haskell-cafe] Error recovery in Happy

[Stephen Tetley]

By the way - my last answer was for the second part of the question.

For error handling - Doaitse Swierstra's UU-Parsing is a combinator
parsing library with some flexibility for error recovery. For an LR
parser like Happy adding extra error handling cases to the productions
in your grammar is the main tool you have.
