Projects

Ideas for small projects

These would make good MS or BS projects.

Difficulty MS/BS	Idea	Resources
BS	Implement hp2ps in blank canvas. Have it dynamically read the hp2ps information during runtime and/or compare graphs.	https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/7.2.2/docs/html/users_guide/hp2ps.html
MS	Implement a parser for Core in HERMIT. Ideally, would parse the format of HERMIT's existing 'clean' pretty printer, such that parse . prettyPrint == id. Can change the pretty printer if necessary to resolve ambiguities.	https://github.com/ghc/ghc/raw/master/docs/core-spec/core-spec.pdf
BS	Add a ':h' command to GHCi that automagically looks up and displays the haddock documentation for a function or type. Also would be nice to hoogle things from GHCi.
