)abbrev package SPADPRSR SpadParser
++ Author: Gabriel Dos Reis
++ Date Created: October 10, 2006
++ Date Last Updated: November 12, 2007
++ Description:  This package provides a simple Spad algebra parser.
++ Related Constructors: Syntax.
++ See Also: Syntax.
SpadParser(): Public == Private where
  Public ==> with
    parse: String -> List Syntax
      ++ parse(f) parses the source file f (supposedly containing
      ++ Spad algebras) and returns a List Syntax.  The filename f
      ++ is supposed to have the proper extension.  Note that this
      ++ function has the side effect of executing any system command
      ++ contained in the file f, even if it might not be meaningful.

  Private ==> add
    parse f ==
      parseSpadFile(f)$Lisp : List(Syntax)
