Since I don't know how to use the filter either, I tried to find another way :-)
In your lexer, do you have something along the lines of the "calc" examples in
ocamllex official documentation, like a hash table that associates strings to
tokens?
In this case, here is a possible solution, you have your hash table associate a
lowercase version of the token with what you'd like to use in the grammar:
"buytocover" => "BuyToCover"
"sellshort" => "SellShort"
...
And you replace the lookup with
try
IDENT (Hashtbl.find keyword_table (String.lowercase id))
with Not_found ->
IDENT id
This way identifiers that when lower-cased look like "buytocover"
("BuYTOCovEr", "bUytOcOVeR", etc.) are replaced by a single token "BuyToCover",
against which you match in the grammar.
Could this satisfy your requirements?
Cheers,
Matthieu
