Here are the general parser (and sometimes lexer) packages I found on raa and rubyforge: LR parsers: http://raa.ruby-lang.org/project/racc/ (run-time extension in ruby 1.8) http://raa.ruby-lang.org/project/rockit/ (doesn't work on 1.8?) LL parsers: http://raa.ruby-lang.org/project/coco-rb/ http://rubyforge.org/projects/tdp4r/ http://rubyforge.org/projects/coco-ruby/ http://rubyforge.org/projects/grammar/ Of course I'm biased toward my package (grammar) and think it is the best out there. You should take a look at all these if you are interested in the topic.
