# devel/semantic - The NetBSD Packages Collection

Lexer, parser-generator, and parser written for Emacs

    The Semantic Bovinator is a lexer, parser-generator, and parser. It is
    written in Emacs Lisp and is customized to the way Emacs thinks about
    language files, and is optimized to use Emacs' parsing capabilities.

    The Semantic Bovinator's goal is to provide an intermediate API for
    authors of language agnostic tools who want to deal with languages in
    a generic way. It also provides a simple way for Mode Authors who are
    experts in their language to provide a parser for those tool
    authors, without knowing anything about those tools.

    The Semantic Bovinator is made up of these important pieces:
        1. lexer
        2. parser
        3. parser-generator
        4. language definitions
        5. navigator
        6. speedbar browser
        7. Documentation generator
