[Larceny-users] Larceny - LALR Grammer Generator and LEXer

[Ray Racine]

Somewhere I saw a mention of Will's grammar generator / lexer, however,
I don't see it in the release source or in the code repository.

Any chance of making it available?

Thanks,

Ray

It's in root/vendor:

http://larceny.ccs.neu.edu/larceny-trac/browser/vendor/LexGen
http://larceny.ccs.neu.edu/larceny-trac/browser/vendor/ParseGen

Warning: It's an LL(1) parser generator, not LALR.

Note: src/Lib/Common/makeLexer.sch uses it. We
might move it into src/lib/ so we can support a
programmer-customizable read or get-datum procedure.
