<br><font size=2><tt>ANTLR 2.7.5 has been released, which includes full
native Python support</tt></font>
<br>
<br><font size=2><tt>What is ANTLR</tt></font>
<br><font size=2><tt>=============</tt></font>
<br>
<br><font size=2><tt>ANTLR, ANother Tool for Language Recognition is a
language tool that provides a framework for constructing recognizers, compilers,
and translators from grammatical descriptions containing Java, C#, C++,
or Python actions. ANTLR is popular because it is easy to understand, powerful,
flexible, generates human-readable output, and comes with complete source.
ANTLR provides excellent support for tree construction, tree walking, and
translation. There are currently about 5,000 ANTLR source downloads a month.</tt></font>
<br>
<br><font size=2><tt>As ANTLR is an LL(k) compiler generator, it is much
more flexible and powerful than Yacc/Lex types of translators. It also
has excellent support for error-handling built in.</tt></font>
<br>
<br><font size=2><tt>ANTLR has extensive documentation, a load of examples
in the source distribution, and a very active mailing list. ANTLR is supported
by its development team as well as by its community of users all over the
world.</tt></font>
<br>

<br><font size=2><tt>What's new in version 2.7.5</tt></font>
<br><font size=2><tt>===========================</tt></font>
<br>
<br><font size=2><tt>The 2.7.5 version of ANTLR is the first with full
native Python support. ANTLR requirs Java to create the recognizers, compilers,
and translators, but the generated code is pure Python. A lot of examples
of using ANTLR with Python are available in the source distribution.</tt></font>
<br>
<br><font size=2><tt>ANTLR works on all types of UNIX platforms as well
as Windows. For the latter OS binary installers are also available.</tt></font>
