[kwlug-disc] Modern way of doing Lex/Yacc

[William Park]

To Computer Science guys,

You come across a situation that calls for little "embedded interpreter" 
solution.
     - You can use already existing embedded interpreter like Tcl or 
Lua.  But, these bring their own baggages.
     - Or, you can use Lex/Yacc (or Flex/Bison) solution which you 
studied in school.  For simple situation, this may be the way to go.

But, I'm curious.  Is there something more modern?  Something that 
leverages 40 years of collective experience in software development. 
Something more than "state machine", but less than full "interpreter".
