Fair enough. I guess one could use Coco/R or other similar tools to generate parsers for other things too, like LaTeX for one. I worked on a table based parser for LaTeX, but my desired IPF output was not exactly what I wanted, so I put the project on hold for now. Maybe something like Coco/R could get me going on that project again. > and I'm sure Florian can think of some more arguments :-) I'm sure he can, I was just curious though. -- Regards, - Graeme - _______________________________________________ fpGUI - a cross-platform Free Pascal GUI toolkit http://opensoft.homeip.net/fpgui/ _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
