Milarepa
     
         A {Perl} {BNF} {parser generator} by Jeffrey Kegler
        .  Milarepa takes a source {grammar}
        written in a mixture of {BNF} and {Perl} and generates Perl
        source, which, when enclosed in a simple wrapper, parses the
        language described by the grammar.  Milarepa is not restricted
        to {LRn grammars}, and the parse logic follows directly from
        the BNF.  It handles {ambiguous grammar}s, ambiguous tokens
        (tokens which were not positively identified by the lexer) and
        allows the programmer to change the start symbol.  The grammar
        may not be {left recursive}.  The input must be divided into
        sentences of a finite maximum length.  There is no fixed
        distinction between {terminal}s and non-terminals, that is, a
        symbol can both match the input AND be on the left hand side
        of a production.  Multiple Marpa grammars are allowed in a
        single Perl program.
