-- | 'sql' is a quasiquoter that eases the syntactic burden
-- of writing big sql statements in Haskell source code.  For example:
--
-- > {-# LANGUAGE QuasiQuotes #-}
-- >
-- > query conn [sql| SELECT column_a, column_b
-- >                    FROM table1 NATURAL JOIN table2
-- >                   WHERE ? <= time AND time < ?
-- >                     AND name LIKE ?
-- >                   ORDER BY size DESC
-- >                   LIMIT 100                        |]
-- >            (beginTime,endTime,string)
--
-- This quasiquoter returns a literal string expression of type 'Query',
-- and attempts to mimimize whitespace;  otherwise the above query would
-- consist of approximately half whitespace when sent to the database
-- backend.  It also recognizes and strips out standard sql comments "--".
--
-- The implementation of the whitespace reducer is currently incomplete.
-- Thus it can mess up your syntax in cases where whitespace should be
-- preserved as-is.  It does preserve whitespace inside standard SQL string
-- literals.  But it can get confused by the non-standard PostgreSQL string
-- literal syntax (which is the default setting in PostgreSQL 8 and below),
-- the extended escape string syntax,  quoted identifiers,  and other similar
-- constructs.
--
-- Of course, this caveat only applies to text written inside the SQL
-- quasiquoter; whitespace reduction is a compile-time computation and
-- thus will not touch the @string@ parameter above,  which is a run-time
-- value.
--
-- Also note that this will not work if the substring @|]@ is contained
-- in the query.
