The parse errors are unfortunately generally this minimal. I expect the
parse errors to simply be inconsistencies with the format that I imposed on
the data, as there are already many. Fixing such inconsistencies is
generally easy; their number matters though.
By the way, do you think there is much value in better error messages?
I do like to at least understand what happened where. Given I would be fluent
in Haskell, I would be still left solely guessing what went wrong. If you say
there's not much value in these error message, then maybe print: "Parse error
in <FILE>:<LINENO>" (and maybe even col). This would make me look for that
line and compare with others.
The quoted error says:
Parse error at line 3264, column 31
I could add something like "in the input file" or "in ${INPUT_FILE}", if that
helps.
