The 1.4 version of the package was provided by NONAKA Kimihiro in PR 26344 . (And seems to be based upon the FreeBSD port.) Cleaned up and updated to 1.5 by me. PLY is a Python-only implementation of the popular compiler construction tools lex and yacc. The implementation borrows ideas from a number of previous efforts; most notably John Aycock's SPARK toolkit. However, the overall flavor of the implementation is more closely modeled after the C version of lex and yacc. The other significant feature of PLY is that it provides extensive input validation and error reporting--much more so than other Python parsing tools.
