Michel,


I have worked with it extensively for over a year now. Prior to
working with Programmar I had limited exposure to compiler and parser
generator tools, and almost no theoretical background, just some
light-hearted hacking with Lex and Yacc.


I found Programmar's "Object Oriented" EBNF grammar language to be
extremely easy to work with, and the IDE to be an indispensible tool
when it came to debugging the grammars I was working with. I also
like the fact that the author worked in an ActiveX control wrapper
around the core parsing engine so I could import the typelib into
Delphi and work with it directly as that is the main language tool I
work in.


Highly recommended, especially for the "Finite Automata Theory"
challenged like myself :-)
