PLY-3.10 is a minor bug fix +release. It supports both Python 2 and Python 3. + +If you are new to PLY, here are a few highlights: + +- PLY is closely modeled after traditional lex/yacc. If you know how + to use these or similar tools in other languages, you will find + PLY to be comparable. + +- PLY provides very extensive error reporting and diagnostic + information to assist in parser construction. The original + implementation was developed for instructional purposes. As + a result, the system tries to identify the most common types + of errors made by novice users. + +- PLY provides full support for empty productions, error recovery, + precedence rules, and ambiguous grammars. + +- Parsing is based on LR-parsing which is fast, memory efficient, + better suited to large grammars, and which has a number of nice + properties when dealing with syntax errors and other parsing + problems. Currently, PLY can build its parsing tables using + either SLR or LALR(1) algorithms. + +More information about PLY can be obtained on the PLY webpage at: + + http://www.dabeaz.com/ply + +PLY is freely available. + +Cheers, + +David Beazley (http://www.dabeaz.com)
