I am in the process of writing a parser based on the PEG grammar and morphology with very flexible output formats and soon to be very fast (for PEGs anyway) parsing using Rats! generated parsers. So if you have a need for such a parser, there's no reason to duplicate too much work, unless its being written in C# is a dealbreaker. Chris Capel -- "What is it like to be a bat?
