absolutely cool.  I'd love to read anything else similar to what this
series of articles looks like.  Compilers is an area I am woefully
unkowledgeable about.  I've been pondering how to build one into a mud, or
at least an interpreter, just trying to see if I can figgure it out for
myself.  :)

this off the web, I may read ahead a bit... ;)

*goes searching for that web-browser thing to do a web search*  I knew
