Leif is that incremental parser. In GNU Emacs, with leif-mode, changes to your buffer are trapped and sent to the parser. Leif can load up a number of different language descriptions (bison and lex tables) to enable it to parse your text. When you ask for feedback, it can quickly tell you where your syntax errors are. Leif is free and available via anonymous ftp to a.cs.uiuc.edu. Mail to leif@cs.uiuc.edu for more info. Dan LaLiberte uiucdcs!liberte liberte@cs.uiuc.edu liberte%a.cs.uiuc.edu@uiucvmd.bitnet
