Jamal,
you wrote the parser or it is just a wrapper to a ms compiler / interpreter?
If you wrote the parser please write me off list, because I have been
looking for a parser written by someone known and try understanding
it, as no tutorials shelped me to understand how to build a parser.
Thanks
Marlon
