[Shootout-list] Generic splitter for source code

[Einar Karttunen]

Hello

Is someone working on this? I can create a simple splitter (in
e.g. perl) if nobody else wants to do it. Here is a simple spec - 
do we need more?

1) calling convention:
   + splitter create <file-to-split>
2) syntax in files
   + ten '=' chars at the beginning of a line followed by
     the name of the part (allow [A-Za-z0-9_\.]).
3) for each part in the file create the file for the part.
4) cleanup
   + splitter clean <file-to-split>
     remove the files that would be created with create.
   + splitter list <file-to-split>
     list the files that would be created with create.

Splitter can be safely run on files with no splits.
Should I submit this?


Short example:

foo.ghc

==========FooMeta.hs
metaAck :: Int -> Int -> Int
metaAck 0 n = n+1
metaAck m 0 = metaAck m 1
metaAck m n = metaAck (m-1) (metaAck m (n-1))

==========Foo.hs
import FooMeta
import System

main = do ~[num] <- getArgs
          putStrLn ("Ack(3," ++ num ++ "): " ++ (show ($(metaAck 3) (read num))))


Things we will need in addition:
1) make loc ignore lines beginning with 10 '=' (optional)
2) some extra logic in the benchmarking script
