Hi,


I've been trying to find some information about "precedence
modification" parsing, as it applies to recursive-descent or LL
parsers. My understanding is that this speeds up the parse by
eliminating the very-deep rule nesting required to build operator
precedence into the rules. Any pointers to URLs, books, etc would be
appreciated.
