I have finished the first stage of a web front-end to my lojban parser.

You can visit it here:

http://subvert-the-dominant-paradigm.net:9072/generator

and enter some lojban text.

It uses my cl-peg package along with a lojban peg grammar based on the
work by Robin and xorxes (and I suppose some other people too).

I process the output with the cl-dot package which feeds graphviz the
result of the parse process. The result is a graphical representation of
the parse nodes.

As yet there are no options to trim down the tree, so you see the whole
morphological breakdown and all the intermediate labels.

Future work is to allow the user to control how much detail is displayed,
as well as to lookup english glosses in wordlists and display them too.

Note:

There are some bugs in the grammar, I noticed that "zo" doesn't work. I
haven't tested it thoroughly so I don't know what else doesn't work.
