No documentation. Even the API is inconsistent between similar
parsing calls. The only one called from outside originally was
p.parseModule(), and that was after the buffer had been primed
with detectByteOrderMarkandConvertToAscii (still not
implemented), and #!ignoreFirstlineHashbang. Another downside is
that you currently have to prime each buffer you load with
p.nextToken() before calling p.parseXXX() to return what you
want. Most of the parsing calls are made internally by the parser
itself. It's going to take a little more effort to worked out a
reasonable API for it, but I suppose that will also be the ideal
time to document it.
As far as parsing C source files, I think you'll need a C
compiler for that!
