I do State Transition Engines(Left to Right Table Driven Parser) which is a 
form of parsing. I even have a figured out how to write a generic version. I 
store my tables in User Spaces and the program reads user spaces and does the 
parsing and does callback to implement actions. 

I use state transition for my make tool, fedex parsing, string parsing, message 
label processing. Very powerful tool but nothing like what I just read about 
the descent parser, nothing that complex. How do you implement?
