Thanks. Just realized that the "add grammar" button for ANTLR
grammar list is broken... so that could be why it's not there.
I'll probably still finish the grammar I'm making since I'm
75% done. That's a great reference, though. I think it's
missing a few minor details like delimited strings, token
strings, and assembly keywords.
Keep in mind that assembly keywords aren't keywords outside of
ASM blocks. You need your lexer to identify them as identifiers.
It should help where the Language Reference pages aren't
accurate. For example, I think HexLetter is incorrectly
defined.
If you find problems in the grammar please file an issue on
Github or create a pull request.
If you need the AST of some D code, you'll save a lot of time
by downloading D-Scanner and running "dscanner --ast
sourcecode.d > sourcecode_ast.xml"
My intent is to develop a language based on D and a compiler to
go with it. I've done something similar using ANTLR once before.
I might turn it into a BS project.
