Re: Java Parser

[Bill Nalen/Towers Perrin]

Don't forget I'm writing a port of the python parser in C++ to be used with
a Palm conduit.  The parser code should be able to be pulled out of the
conduit code and used stand alone (I have test code that does just that).
To date, it does almost everything except images.

Continuing in the theme David and I were running with yesterday
(off-list), but it was actually my intention to write a Java parser for
Plucker as the 'default' parser, to replace the awk one that was so
convoluted.

I'd be interested to hear for what purpose a Java parser might be used,
though I must say that I doubt that I would have time to work on it at
the moment. Still it would be an interesting side project...

Cheers
Mark
