+# ReParse - Coffeescript Edition
+
+## Purpose
+
+This is a hand-written re-implementation of Ben Weaver's ReParse
+(https://github.com/weaver/ReParse).  It is a (mostly) faithful
+reimplementation, although a few things were re-arranged to be more in
+line with Haskell's parsec library, with a side-line look at JSParsec.
+This version uses the Coffeescript class management toolkit, so it
+*looks* much more like a classic duck-typed OO implementation, the
+kind of thing you're familiar with from Ruby or Python.  Take a peek
+at the examples and you'll see what I mean-- I think they're 20%
+cooler that Ben's, just 'cuz of how they look.
+
+I made the parser re-usable with a new input; it's slightly faster
+than the javascript implementation.
+
+I wrote this because I needed a parser for a coffeescript project, and
+while I liked Ben's code, I needed to disassemble it, figure out what
+it did, and re-write it in my own language and with my own brain.
+It's been nearly 14 years since I last had to write a parser; I
+usually work at a much higher level, but my current project required
+one, and this was the exercise I chose.
+
+## Requirements
+
+Coffeescript to build/run.
+
+Docco to produce documentation. 
+
+Both of these are specified in the package.json file.
+
+## Acknowledgements
+
+Ben Weaver (of course)
+
+Balazs Endresz (for JSParsec, which at least explained some functions
+of Parsec to me better than the Parsec source code)
+
+John MacFarlane (for Pandoc, which led me down this rabbit hole in the
+first place)
