Subject: Left recursive parser


  I am interested in writing a parser for a left-recursive grammar, namely
that of C, in hol.  The parser library in the hol distribution won't handle
left recursive grammars, and I don't really want to take the time or energy
to eliminate the left-recursion from the grammar.  Is there anyone who has
had any luck building parsers in hol for left-recursive grammars?  Any help
would be appreciated.
