pyparsing and LaTeX?

> Anyone parsing simple LaTeX constructs with pyparsing?

Greetings Tim,

Have always wanted a way to parse LaTeX myself.
Unfortunately, I have been moved to a different project.
However, I am still very much interested.
Did you ever get a reply?

Hi Justin,
Yes, I did, from the pyparsing forum on Sourceforge. Paul's responses are
excellent and his help for my simple needs really got me started.
http://pyparsing.sourceforge.net/

For now I'm working on a tag translator to convert from one LaTeX tagset to
another, which is a pretty simple task compared to writing a full parser
like pyLaTeX
http://pylatex.sourceforge.net/

You might check out the LyX project. They use python for their
scripting, and have tools to convert LaTeX to LyX's TeX-like
format. Then again, they may not have anything you can use.

Hi everyone! How can I simply search text for regexps (lets say <a href="(.*?)">(.*?)</a>) and save all URLs(1) and link contents(2) in a dictionary { name : URL}? In a single pass if it could. Or how can I replace the html &entities; in a string "blablabla&amp;blablabal&amp;balbalbal" with the chars they mean using re.sub? I found out they are stored in an dict . I though about this functionality:

Is pyparsing really a recursive descent parser? I ask this because there are grammars it can't parse that my recursive descent parser would parse, should I have written one.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
