Bruce & Rob:

Thanks for the pointer to Gwydion Dylan's parsergen.  I have a quick couple
of questions about its implementation:

1) LALR(1), LL(1), LL(k), pred-LL(k) (i.e. backtracking), something
completely different?
2) Is it portable Dylan?  (I.e. could I port it without a huge amount of
difficulty to FO, or does it rely on Gwydion internals?)
