That'd be nice.. i am currently contemplating to move or not. Nom does run on Rust stable, right? Although i find rust-peg super easy to use, i don't like that it's only working on nightly. A difference in performance would be another reason to switch over.. or not.. :)

Anyway, thanks for this great project!

Nom works on stable, but there are nice things you can do if you use the nightly, like matching on error codes with slice or box patterns ( https://github.com/Geal/nom/wiki/Error-management#with-slice... ) or use no_std to embed the parser as a C library ( https://github.com/Geal/nom_in_c ).

You shouldn't need no_std specifically to embed in C anymore.

That's nice to know, thanks!

Any time. Basically, one the runtime was removed[1], this became true.

1: Of course, all programming languages have runtimes, but once we got down to C or C++ levels of runtime, that is.
