Description : feature-full driver for OCaml AST transformers
A driver is an executable created from a set of OCaml AST
transformers linked together with a command line frontend.
.
The aim is to provide a tool that can be used to:
.
* easily view the pre-processed version of a file, no need to
construct a complex command line: `ppx file.ml` will do
* use a single executable to run several transformations: no need to
fork many times just for pre-processing
* improved errors for misspelled/misplaced attributes and extension
points
This package is a new dependency of ocaml-ipaddr.
