* Parscheme version 0.0 (beta) -*- outline -*- This is Parscheme, a library for writing parsers in portable Scheme. This file is written by Taylor R. Campbell and placed in the Public Domain. All warranties are disclaimed. This code is in a preliminary state, and only lightly tested. It is not very fast, and there are certain space safety guarantees that it should but does not yet make. Parscheme can be loaded into into the following Scheme systems: - Scheme48: Load s48-interfaces.scm and s48-packages.scm into the config package. ** Portability At present, this code runs only in Scheme48, but because it is written in a portable manner, porting it to other Schemes should be easy. Although the code relies on some non-standard extensions, these have all been very carefully isolated, and most of the non-R5RS dependencies are SRFIs. In particular, this collection uses SRFI 1 (List Library), SRFi 9 (Defining Record Types), SRFI 14 (Character-Set Library), and SRFI 45 (Primitives for Expressing Iterative Lazy Algorithms), all of which except for SRFI 45 are widely supported. SRFI 45 is not an onerous burden, however; it would suffice to define (define-syntax lazy (syntax-rules () ((LAZY promise) (DELAY (FORCE promise))))), if space safety is not a concern. If space safety is a concern, then there is an implementation from lazy.scm, and there is also the reference implementation available on the web. ** Documentation To be written.
