Implement indentation-sensitive grammar about rply HOT 5 OPEN

I'm definitely conceptually interested in this (I too, like indentation based grammars, and hate the hack in between my lexer and parser). Are you interested in working on implementing this?

I would if I had much of a clue what I was doing. :) I only have a rough grasp of parsers (still in the "fake it" stage) and the specifically mathematical bits tend to leave me behind - I was webcrawling to see if anyone had any more elegant solutions to the problem when I found the paper.

I'm also not really good with the academic papers, most of the code here is
transcribed from the upstream ply.

I, too, am resorting to some ugly hacking of tokens in order to get my rply-based grammars to recognize indentation as scope changes. More complete support for indentation-sensitive grammar would be an incredibly nice feature to include. (My esolang, unlike Python, doesn't use colons to indicate a scope increase… nor braces. Only tab-based indentation.)

This would be a nicde addition to rply
