So, the Pointy-Haired Boss won't let you use any module that didn't come with Perl? Even if you can't use Parse::RecDescent in your final program, you can still use it to get the job done. If something resembling Chas Owens's solution works, you can turn a grammar into a module by the means described under "Precompiling parsers". Then you can pull the Perl code out of that module, and the PHB never has to know you didn't write it yourself. http://search.cpan.org/dist/Parse-RecDescent/lib/Parse/RecDescent.pod#Precompiling_parsers Cheers! --Tom Phoenix Stonehenge Perl Training -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/
