    oh wow. I'll look into that thank you! Edit: No book there, just a link to the 2nd edition (to buy) and a note that the 1st edition is out of print. Oh well. I ended up finding it for about $80, that's a bit more reasonable than what i was looking at having to pay.

    Fooled me the first time also: the top Title/link is for the pdf :) Seems like I need new four eyes, the link is only to an image. Hmm, the link seems to be PTAPG_1st_Edition[^] Found in freecomputerbooks.com website. It's still to the authors site, but don't know what to make of it...

      I was mistaken. The link worked and I have several copies of the PDF now.

        I feel you are more than qualified to write that perfect book on Parsing.

                A PDF version of it can be found here : Parsing Techniques: A Practical Guide - Free Computer, Programming, Mathematics, Technical Books, Lecture Notes and Tutorials[^] -edit- it seems the PDF version is inaccessible from that page.

                    OK - so I've analyzed the situation.

                    • Essentially, you've actually parsed many books to find one that you feel is perfect.
                    • Needing the book naturally implies your parsing itself may not be perfect*
                    • However, since your parsing itself is imperfect you cannot be sure if this is the perfect book.
                    • Buying the book, however, will teach you if you parsed perfectly to find it!
                    • Unless, of course, you parsed imperfectly to ascertain its perfection, in which case it would
                    • only be perfect by mere happenstance.
                    • In which case, then, if it is not perfect you're back on the road, again.

                    Somehow, "Rinse and Repeat" seems the most appropriate closing at this point. * We leap to the conclusion that you really meant the contents of the book are perfect.

                        Hmmm.... Parsing Techniques - A Practical Guide - 2nd Ed.pdf Dick Grune Ceriel J.H. Jacobs Springer 674 pages 2,670,949 bytes 2/1/2008 1:00pm Apparently this was..."added to my collection"...over 12 years ago. Ping me directly (I think there's some method on CP to send a private message?) if you're okay with some gray area source. [Edit] Duh. "Email", right next to "Reply". That should do it...
