Xcode SLF0 serialization format parser (used in xcactivitylog)

SLF0Parser.hs

{-# LANGUAGE OverloadedStrings #-}
{-|

Tokenizer for SLF0 serialization format, used by Xcode to, at the very least,
encode some log files.

For example, `.xcactivitylog` logs are gzipped files of this format, 
serializing some objc classes which represent the build log.

This class tokenizes the raw byte stream into a flat list of tokens. The actual
object hierarchy is dictated by additional information supplied elsewhere (such
as the encode/decode function of classes themselves).

If it is convenient, can I have a link of the example files you mentioned?
I am working on something reading the log files Xcode produces.
