Pegged: spaces

[Michelle Long]

Is Pegged suppose to consume white spaces automatically?

I have some text like "abvdfs dfddf"

and I have made some rules to divide the two parts by a space.

The sub-rules are complex but none of them contain a space(' ', 
they do contain spaces to separate the sub-rules).

The parser though is essentially ignore the space.

Sometimes it seems to work on certain rule construction and then 
other times it doesn't.

Basically none of my sub-rules have any space and the main rule is

A ' '+ B

Where A attempts to parse the first half and B the second half.

But A consumes the whole string!

A does not consume any spaces though! (no . usage or ' ' in the 
rule definitions that A uses)


I'd be able to limit the application of the rule to a substring 
that sort of emulates splitting of the string.

(!' ':A) ' '+ B

hypothetically would parse each char for A but terminate the rule 
when it encounters a space before A get to see the space. Is this 
possible with pegged?

It's sort of a look ahead but it has to do it for each character 
rather than (!' ' A) which would only check the first character 
then continue on with A.
