PARSER: a tool for command interpretation

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5712359

PARSER is a useful tool in interactive command interpretation. It is designed to give an application programmer the ability to write code that will quickly determine if the user of an interactive program has given a valid command. It is also useful in parsing character data stored in a file. This is done by parsing the input character string and placing its components and related information into arrays stored in common blocks. The code is written in the structured programming language RATFOR. The output from the RATFOR processor is FORTRAN; and in the case of PARSER, this FORTRAN is ANSI standard FORTRAN 77.
