Hi Robert/all

This is my first post to this group. I'm in the early stages of 
developing a similar system using regexes to check grammar. It uses 
XML files to hold the rules, each of which has some unit tests 
associated with it.

At present I've just made a stand-alone DOS command-line executable 
as a proof of concept. If the framework proves to be robust enough to 
handle large rule files and internationalization then it might be a 
good starting point for an OOo grammar checker. I've used the Boost 
Regex library (C++) in this prototype -- it does support references 
to individual expressions, which I think is important.

The code, XML and executable as it presently stands is available at

Best wishes
Matthew
