Parrot and Perl 6 Parrot and Perl 6 - Environments for Dynamic Languages #30

Parser Grammar Engine (PGE)

Parrot subsystem for Perl 6 rules

Compiles Perl 6 regexes into Parrot subroutines that match patterns

Thus, PGE can take a regex pattern like

[ <alpha> | _ ] \w*

and produce a standalone parrot subroutine to match it in a string.
