Hi, Neil, thanks for that!

Having studied only ancient parsers, I'd love to learn new ones. Can
you please post references to modern parsing? Actual parsers, books,
papers, anything you may find valuable.

I have I hunch you're talking about PEG parsers, but maybe something
else, or besides?

Thanks!

Best,

Luciano
