yeah, i was talking about LR parsing so i construct a parse table myself, yes? (rather than having a parser generator) i seem to remember when inspecting the source of an old version of j that the parse table was hand crafted. is this hard? i know the principle of producing a FSM from a grammar, and it appears a little complex. can it actually be more concise and transparent to hand craft a parse table? i'm ready to believe that it may be. ta, jack ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
