Abstract
rdp is a parser generator which accepts Aerator Backus Naur Form produ ctions decorated with attributes and ANSI-C actions and produces recur sive descent parsers. It has special support for the generation of tre e-based intermediate forms, built-in symbol table handling for the imp lementation of context-sensitive components of the language syntax and a support library that includes a generalised graph handling module t hat can output graphs in a form suitable for use with well known visua lisation tools.
