Well, a few years ago, I actually did a similar suggestion, but it didn't take off. Unfortunately, I'm not a C programmer. But if you are and you're willing, you're welcome at the abc project at Sourceforge. Send me your SF username and I'll add you to the project. This goes for anyone that wants to contribute, by the way. >> Bob, Bert, and all the others who responded: thank you for your willingness to help with a libabc project. I think that for now it's best to wait till Guido has published his ABC standard. After it has been finalized, we could form a club of developers to implement a standard conforming libabc parser library. Bob, it would certainly be appreciated if you could help with writing a suitable Flex/Bison grammar. I've also written a partial Bison grammar myself a while ago, to find out how easy or difficult it would be to write a complete ABC parser with this technology and to check if there were any problems regarding the way the ABC draft standard was formulated.
