Nope...i'm just working on the engine (throwaway prototype) at the
moment, but this has led me to believe I can do all sorts of fancy
tricks later if I simply serialize the grammar/lookahead info (like -g
option) into the output parser so it's available. The degenerate case
might be that I don't generate the parser, just the grammar/lookahead
info and then you can intepret it. :)
