[12:17:34] <daherb> it's always fun to trigger an error in the gf compiler
[12:52:52] <inariksit> indeed!
[12:52:54] <inariksit> what did you get?
[12:53:10] <inariksit> daherb did you see the lentil soup I cooked on prasanth's timeline

[12:56:55] <daherb> inariksit: inariksit: Pattern match failure in do expression at dist/build/GF/Grammar/Parser.hs:4036:8-14
[12:57:26] <inariksit> exciting! I don't remember seeing that before, at least not commonly
[12:58:00] <daherb> no, i am just doing things i am not supposed to do in a "pre"
[12:58:44] <inariksit> I see
[12:58:48] <daherb> i was hoping that i could something like a predefined pattern, something like "consonants"
[12:59:48] <daherb> there used to be something that is still used in older grammars like italian: "In GF prior to 3.0, a specific type Strs is used for defining prefixes, instead of just variants of Str."
[13:00:23] <daherb> so i created an oper "consonant : Str = "b"|"c"|"d"|"f"|"g"|"h"|"l"|"m"|"n"|"p"|"q"|"r"|"s"|"t"|"v"|"z";"
[13:01:11] <daherb> and tried "pre {(conosonant|"gn"|"pn"|"ps"|"z") => "uno""
[13:01:37] <daherb> which in theory is a variant of Str but it breaks the grammar used in the parser
[13:02:17] <daherb> if i actually do what i wanted to do i get a different error: "pre {("s"+conosonant|"gn"|"pn"|"ps"|"z") => "uno""
[13:02:46] <daherb> error: "no strs from pattern"
[13:03:16] <daherb> but now i have to get ready for the lab session
[13:05:32] <inariksit> have fun!
