SSCCE for the entire Elm syntax

[dmy]

I like the idea.

From a quick glance, it seems that at least the following are missing:

• multiline strings (with """)
• tuples and unit type pattern matching
• exposing (..) import
• characters (Char with ')
• records fields accessors without the syntax suggar (.field record)

You could also show that record fields accessors work on expressions, for example:

(named "myname").name

Also have a look there:

Lesser known syntax

Please share your knowledge of any lesser known Elm syntax that is not mentioned in the official overview (http://elm-lang.org/docs/syntax) and is possibly buried somewhere else and easy to miss. I was pleased to find out that for function parameters that are records or tuples, you do not need to choose between either destructuring that parameter OR giving a name to it as a whole. You can do both at the same time using the wrapping (… as foo) syntax! f a b c = … f a {x, y} c = … …

There are other things like multiple imports using the same alias.
