Hi, Im new to the list and I can see by the member names that I am a novice venturing into expert waters. I am the developer of APG an ABNF Parser Generator. It is a project that began as a learning curiosity but has improved with successive releases. I am about to release version 5.0, and in that release I am claiming that APG 5.0 parsers and PEG recognize the same set of languages. This result, if true, is surprising to me, since APG starts with a context-free grammar formalism and PEG makes a point of not. The argument is heuristic, not mathematical, but the result looks almost obvious on the face of it. Im guessing this is either already known or Im missing the point somewhere. I dont want to make false claims or erroneous representations of PEG, so your criticisms and comments would be welcome, should you be interested in taking a look at it. You can find the discussion and the software at the temporary locations:
