IIRC it's only one file on LuaForge, it's there [1], but I failed to
download the thing. Attached.
Thanks for that --- I've been playing with it.
Unfortunately I can't make it work. When running the example grammar
(which came back to life on LuaForge), it either produces errors or goes
into infinite loops without producing any result. I don't know if this
is a problem with the example grammar or the tool, though.
It appears that it particularly doesn't like the rules:
ss ::= ss s --
ss ::= s
...although if I take them out it just complains about syntax errors no
matter what the input is.
