hi, I see nobody is talking here ... so ! Anyone to have idea how the Parser will work... I mean mostly at the language-developer side (not the internals). It will be written in Perl, right ?! some striped-version of Perl ?! i.e. what will be allowed and will not ? Will it support lookahead, lookbehind and backtrack ? Some samples ? How we will hack on it ? As far as I remember it will be compiled to bytecode. I saw on Damian site that Perl5/6 parser based on Fast::RecDescent is pending ?! As the Fast::RecDescent itself :") At all what do U think ! ===== iVAN [EMAIL PROTECTED] =====
