[ANN] Tywith - Generating functions from type definitions

[Martin Sandin]

Tywith Module version 0.3 - initial release

Tywith is an OCaml camlp4 parser extension which
derives functions from type definitions. It's
currently capable of generating 'string_of_<type>',
'map_<type>', and 'fold_<type>' functions for alias
and variant types containing tuples and other types
with the appropriate functions defined. Tywith
special-cases built-in types such as list, int, and
string to provide or use the appropriate functions.

This package extends OCaml with the following
syntactic construction

   type <def> with <id> [,<id>..])

The id's currently supported are 'string_of', 'map',
and 'fold', which will result in the generation of the
appropriate functions. The fold functions will
typically depend on the presence of a map function for
any type mentioned inside the definition which depend
on a type parameter.
