Hi all.

I was a bit bored the other day, so I did something rather silly: I made Debian packages for dmd and Phobos (:P)  I just didn't want to have files floating around my Debian box without a package to handle installs, upgrades, etc.

I was wondering if anyone wanted them (I'll attach them to another post or email them if you want), or even better, wanted to host them. They're for the 0.108 release of dmd (I seperated Phobos out in case updates to dmd and Phobos get out of sync later on).

Anyway, back to trying to get this BNF compiler working :P

Happy holidays,

Bakus-Naur Form.  Put simply, it takes a description of a programming language, and generates a scanner and parser for that language (which are the "turn source file into tokens" and "put the tokens into a symbol tree" stages of compilation).
