Subject: Parser/glosser software


Well, the time has finally come to throw my parser/glosser software open
to public scrutiny. It was developed on Linux and should be portable
amongst Unix-like systems with the following utilities available

bison (yacc probably OK, edit the makefile)
flex (lex probably OK, ditto)
an ANSI C compiler (gcc recommended)
perl
gdbm
make (GNU make recommended)

LaTeX will also be useful to format the better-styled versions of its
output.

This is a development completely independent of the 'official' tools - I
would be particularly interested in any interesting effects and anomalies
this throws up!

The current version can be downloaded at

It is still very much 'work-in-progress' - things are still being tweaked
to make the glossed output come closer to English. Most of the work is to
extend the dictionary further.

There are a few other goodies on my lojban page generally

I can't guarantee getting time to work on all bugs and suggestions that
get thrown back at me, but any thoughts and information would be welcome.

Enjoy!
Richard
