Most of the tools that I've written have been in perl, and parsing abc in that languages is so much easier than using such tools that I don't even consider them. And yes, I've used things like lex, yacc, etc. on a number of projects. The syntax of abc isn't really complex enough to deserve a separate parse pass like that. The output would be at least as complex as abc itself, so you'd just replace one parsing problem with a different but equally complex parsing problem.
