Parsec is designed to parse textual information, but it occurs to me that Parsec could also be suitable to do binary file format parsing for complex formats that involve conditional segments, out-of-order segments, etc.
Is there an ability to do this or a similar, alternative package that does this? If not, what is the best way in Haskell to parse binary file formats?
You might be interested in AttoParsec, which was designed for this purpose, I think.
