in thread Writing Interpreters, Compilers and Translators in Perl

I'll have to investigate the Perl 6 rules facilities more thoroughly now and see how much I can bring on board. Do you know of any reference links to help me there?

Well, there's Synopsis 5. Also see the comment about the standard grammar in a recent article by TimToady.

      All the links, but TimToady's home node have to do with Perl 6.

        oic, yes ur right. Meanwhile I also came across Damian's Perl6::Rules, version dated April 12th 2007, don't know if there was one before that on CPAN, which provides a limited subset for use under Perl5 already - it has an example of using it to define a language grammar for HTML prior to parsing. And I was already considering a "special-needs" XML parser as an example to demonstrate when you can and can't use Parse::RecDescent - hmmm the plot thickens!
