I wonder if any of you out there have come accross, or actually own a 
YACC-like parser that generates Smalltalk (rather than C) code.

I will be writing a Smalltalk/V program that parses sentences of a grammar, 
and would prefer to use some YACC-like thing rather than write my own. (Yes,
I do have the option of using YACC, and generating a parser that is external 
to my Smalltalk program; and interface the two. But it is not much faster 
than writing my own parser.)

I am interested in all solutions: Smalltalk code; progrmas that are written 
in C, but can be customized to generate Smalltalk; or anything else that 
might help.

Thank you in advance for your help,

Regards,
Thomas.
