NAME
     ml-burg - a tree parser generator for Standard ML

SYNOPSIS
     ml-burg file

DESCRIPTION
     The  ml-burg  program  generates a Standard ML program to perform bottom-up
     rewriting of an input tree. Cost information associated with  each  rewrite
     rule is used to derive the minimum rewrite cost for the entire tree. A suc-
     cessful  reduction  corresponds  to  rewriting  the input tree to a special
     non-terminal symbol called the start non-terminal. Upon  successful  reduc-
     tion,  facilities	are  provided to walk the tree emitting semantic actions
     corresponding to the rules that matched.
