Subject: ANTLR Target for Ruby

Hi everyone,

I've asked the following question in the ANTLR mailing list, with no
luck. Since it's quite Ruby-centric, perhaps someone here knows the
answer, given the popularity of ANTLR.

I'm in the process of migrating a YACC grammar to ANTLR.

However, since the rest of the project is written in Ruby, I'd like to
generate the ANTLR code in Ruby, if possible. Currently I'm generating
Java and using JRuby to circumvent this limitation. I'd prefer to use
MRI-Ruby, though

I've read the wiki page related to the Ruby Target (http://
www.antlr.org/wiki/display/ANTLR3/Antlr3RubyTarget), and the blog of
its developer (http://split-s.blogspot.com/2005/12/antlr-for-
ruby.html). The development seems to have halted in version 3.0b4.
This version could suit my needs as I'm only using basic Lexer and
Parser generation. No tree parsers.

Does anyone know where to get this version? It's not listed in the
Download directory (http://www.antlr.org/download/) and I couldn't
find it in the development repository. Has anyone used it
successfully?

Thanks in advance.
