No.  Some of RPython's interpreters are only interpreters, without any
parser.  I'm not saying yours must be too, but in general we tend not
to be too interested in parsers at all.  Maybe look at
rpython.rlib.parsing for a pre-made example.  You are free to discuss
parsing more theoretically here or elsewhere, but I would guess it is
more likely you'd get feedback elsewhere...


A bientôt,

Armin.
