Added

• A new tutorial to help new users

• select macro, a wrapper over filter_map that makes extracting data from specific tokens easy

• choice parser, a better alternative to long or chains (which sometimes have poor compilation performance)

• todo parser, that panics when used (but not when created) (akin to Rust's todo! macro, but for parsers)

• keyword parser, that parses exact identifiers

• from_str combinator to allow converting a pattern to a value inline, using std::str::FromStr

• unwrapped combinator, to automatically unwrap an output value inline

• rewind combinator, that allows reverting the input stream on success. It's most useful when requiring that a pattern is followed by some terminating pattern without the first parser greedily consuming it

• map_err_with_span combinator, to allow fetching the span of the input that was parsed by a parser before an error was encountered

• or_else combinator, to allow processing and potentially recovering from a parser error

• SeparatedBy::at_most to require that a separated pattern appear at most a specific number of times

• SeparatedBy::exactly to require that a separated pattern be repeated exactly a specific number of times

• Repeated::exactly to require that a pattern be repeated exactly a specific number of times

• More trait implementations for various things, making the crate more useful

Changed

• Made just, one_of, and none_of significant more useful. They can now accept strings, arrays, slices, vectors, sets, or just single tokens as before
• Added the return type of each parser to its documentation
• More explicit documentation of parser behaviour
• More doc examples
• Deprecated seq (just has been generalised and can now be used to parse specific input sequences)
• Sealed the Character trait so that future changes are not breaking
• Sealed the Chain trait and made it more powerful
• Moved trait constraints on Parser to where clauses for improved readability

Fixed

• Fixed a subtle bug that allowed separated_by to parse an extra trailing separator when it shouldn't
• Filled a 'hole' in the Error trait's API that conflated a lack of expected tokens with expectation of end of input
• Made recursive parsers use weak reference-counting to avoid memory leaks
