I'll actually just make my recursive descent parser module a whole new project. I think it deserves that. Perhaps other people need to parse config files and want to use my kick-ass grammar for it. The code is found here:

Worked on WLambda again a bit. I added the WLambda syntax parser to the standard library and improved the handling of the Syntax marker data types a bit. Now you can parse WLambda code and process it any way you like to. With "match" you have a powerful tool to analyze and transform the abstract syntax tree! #foss #gpl #rustlang #softwaredevelopment #programming #coding #compilerdesign #compiler
