The PPT yacc Command

This is the home page for the Perl Power Tools implementation of the standard yacc command.

Current Perl implementations are:

Here are some of mjd's suggestions:
  1. Look carefully at Parse::YAPP first.
  2. Look at my PPT implementation of units(). It has a yacc-style parser in it. The grammar is encoded in a table. You could swipe the table-driven parser, and then all you'd have to do is write the part of the program that analyzes grammars and constructs the tables.
  3. If you think you might want to work on it, but you don't think you know enough, drop me a note, because I'd be happy to help you, although I don't want to write it myself. (This week.) Then you can get all the credit.
