Thanks for the recommendation!
I've converted the code in the svn to use it. After some bugs I had in my
grammar, due to things I didn't understand there, I got all tests to finally
pass there. Now, it seems to be working pretty well.
So now I can continue to enhance Qantor after a long time of inability to work
on it.
Regexp-Grammars seems very nifty.
