- nvader 12y ago(also replying to siblings) Parsley is just so good a name. It has the word parse as a kangaroo, and it evokes the image of fresh, green, edible. I just ran grep /usr/share/dict/words -e "^pars[^']*[^s]$" to find the following list of words beginning with pars parse parsec parsed parser parsimony parsing parsley parsnip parson parsonage I think I might call my next parsing-oriented tool either parson or parsnip. :)

- bshimmin 12y agoI was interested in "kangaroo"; Wikipedia suggests a kangaroo word should, in addition to having the same letters and in the same order as its parent, also have the same meaning (eg. masculine -> male), so "parse" isn't quite a kangaroo for "parsley", apparently. It'd be a moderately fun little challenge to write a little program to find some kangaroos - though Wiktionary (predictably) has a nice list already here: http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Appendix:Kangaroo_words http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Appendix:Kangaroo_words "Parsley" is indeed a great name. I'll contribute another Parsley - a Flex framework of yore also bore that name.
- nvader 12y agoThe reason I thought it was a kangaroo was specifically because it was being used as a name for a parsing library. After a library is named "Parsley", the list of meanings for Parsley now includes "A parsing library", and so I see it as a kangaroo for Parse.
- abecedarius 12y agoI'm afraid there's https://github.com/darius/parson https://github.com/darius/parson already too. (I went through the same process to name it -- there's not much left in that well, is there?)
- JadeNB 12y ago> grep /usr/share/dict/words -e "^pars[^']<star>[^s]$" (I changed a literal asterisk to <star> to avoid formatting.) You get a few more options if you remove the anchor at the beginning: grep /usr/share/dict/words -e "pars[^']<star>[^s]$" For example, 'sparse' seems like a good name for a lightweight parser library.

- fizx 12y agoFirst commit on fizx/parsley was in 2008. The library was open-sourced in 2009. This predates all of the name conflicts so far mentioned, though no doubt someone used the name before in some capacity.
