[Haskell-cafe] what is lens-based parsing?

[Li-yao Xia]

Hello Ruben,

I think this just refers to the fact that parsers can be combined using 
the lenses provided by the library.

Gabriel Gonzalez[1] wrote "pipes-parse-3.0.0 introduces a new lens-based 
parsing mechanism." So it doesn't seem to correspond to a globally known 
pattern.
