ReStructuredText-Parser

A parser written in Haskell that converts ReST to LaTeX using the Parsec Library

Prerequisites:

* Haskell 2013.2.0.0+
* Parsec 3+

Run a conversion:

Go to the directory that includes all the files

cd ..

Start the Glasgow Haskell Compiler

ghci

Load the parser

:l a.hs

Read b.rest and write c.tex

main

Done! The LaTeX source can be found in c.tex. To make a PDF simply type

pdflatex c.tex

Important files
