[Haskell-cafe] Looking for simple C statements parser for Parsec, MegaParsec or Happy

[Andrew Butterfield]

Hi Bulat,
 will the c-language package do ? Its parser seems to be based on Happy?

http://hackage.haskell.org/package/language-c-0.8.1/docs/Language-C-Parser.html <http://hackage.haskell.org/package/language-c-0.8.1/docs/Language-C-Parser.html>

Regards, Andrew
