Hi there, we are developing a new expression language for an
in-house project and want to prototype a few grammars. I
remember seeing an ad around for a Visual YACC product that
would allow to enter a grammar and then throw test data at it to
see how it performed. Anyone remember this? Got a contact for
them? Any news on it ... good or bad. Any information would be
great.


Thanx in advance,
Sandy

[MKS Yacc also has a visual debugger which I found modestly useful.
Personally, I always found it adequate to write a two line driver to call
yyparse, turn on parser debugging, and watch what happens when I type input
strings. But then, I also used to toggle programs into a PDP-8. -John]
