note ichimunki Hahaha! We're going to beat this grammar into submission yet. :) <p> Unfortunately we can't brute force it, think of the labor and testing involved to add new tags. I think the best I can do here is to collect punct as single character chunks (storing them in a temp var), then, when I get to a token, insert that temp var back into the tree. I'd post code, but rather than printing discrete sensible morphemes, I really just need the morphemes (productions in P::RD-speak) concatenated in a string. For that purpose whether it emits punct one character at a time or in chunks won't matter. <p> Either way, this Parse::RecDescent module is the best thing since HTML::TokeParser&#91;::Simple&#93;, imho. 184966 185058
