  T-gen
       
          A general-purpose {object-oriented} tool for the automatic
          generation of string-to-{object} translators.  It was written
          in {Smalltalk} by Justin Graver  and runs
          in the Smalltalk programming environment.  T-gen supports the


          generation of both {top-down parser}s ({LL parser}s) and
          {bottom-up parser}s ({LR parser}s), which will automatically
          generate {derivation tree}s, {abstract syntax tree}s or
          arbitrary {Smalltalk} {object}s.  The simple specification
          {syntax} and {graphical user interface} are intended to
          enhance the learning, comprehension and usefulness of T-gen.
       
          Current version: 2.1.
       
          Runs on {Smalltalk-80}, {ParcPlace Objectworks}/{Smalltalk
          4.0} or 4.1.
