I really benefitted from using Jim Roskind's "skelgrph.c" drop-in for
Bob Corbett's "byacc". Along the same lines, I once wrote curses- and
tk/tcl-based animations that were, however, integrated within a larger
framework. It was all very easy to set up, once I had seen skelgrph.c
as a guiding model. It also helped a bunch of my students to really
understand how to provide good error recovery in simple ways using
yacc. (Where are my asbestos...)
