stripcomments 1.0

[Thomas Hallgren]

Hi,

There now is a program that strips comments and blank lines properly. 
You can get the Haskell source code from:

    http://www.cse.ogi.edu/~hallgren/stripcomments/

How hard it is to do a real job of course depends on what you start 
from. I happened to have a lexer for Haskell, that was really easy to 
reuse for this purpose!

Regards,
Thomas Hallgren
