There already are several clojure parser libraries that rely more heavily on Clojure data structure syntax to define grammars; in fact, that's probably the norm. Instaparse was definitely intended as an alternative to that approach. That said, instaparse definitely uses Clojure data structures internally to represent the parser and provides constructor functions to build them. It would be pretty easy to build other front-ends that translate to its internal format, including one that tries to strike a balance between readability and homoiconicity. -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
