Thanks so much for the useful and informative advice.
Again due to my rookie-ness I was struggling to adapt my old ANTLR grammar
to instaparse (and did not come back to read new feedback bad me). While
from the docs instaparse offers more flexibility than ANTLR, the cost is
dealing with much low

hoorah! HCF! (check out boot - JCL, done right!)

While Instaparse is (IMHO) the best parser for use with Clojure, you don't
have to start from such a low level (i.e. parsing a char stream text
file). Just re-write your original problem a little and you can skip
writing a custom parser.
In Clojure, perhaps the most popular format (certainly the
In my experience, instaparse + defun is a good choice.

I enjoyed working with clj-antlr recently, it's a wrapper over a java
library, but gives you a fast feedback loop with an interpreter instead of
generated java code. The 'clojurey' part is that the output is a nested
sequence, from there it's really effective to use tree zippers and
core.match to
Hi,
Instaparse is a great parser generator, especially if you already have a BNF.

Thanks for your input. LFE is quite an unexpected "thing".
What I'm trying to do, is just a "lunch time project"; something that I can
target without corporate constrains just as a learning exercise.
Furthermore I can test the Clojure version against my old working Java
version.
As I was sayin
If you need the features of Erlang but would like that in a Lisp (not
Common Lisp, though) environment, have you taken a look at LFE (Lisp
Flavored Erlang)? I'm not trying to discourage you from looking at Clojure,
but if you need/depend on some of the features of Erlang, LFE might be a
closer
