Before Curry I was in tight relations with Prolog. There was such thing like
cutting ("!") alternatives. As I understand that is what you want - just to
restrict alternatives. In curry that can be done at the upper level with use
of "once" or "solveAll" or whatever you would like.
I.e. if you want some kind of semideterministic (I like this term from
Mercury) function you should wrap it like:
parse_semidet s | once (parse s =:= r) = r where r free
