Abstract

A syntax-directed editor for Pascal is created by using an ALOE (A Language Oriented Editor) implementation tool running under the UNIX* Operating System. An ALOE supports the construction and manipulation of language structures while guaranteeing syntactic correctness. Instantiations of an ALOE for Pascal are generated from a grammatical description of a language. Trees are represented internally by ALOE as an abstract syntax trees that the user manipulates directly, and then maps this internal representation to a concrete representation for display to the user.

*UNIX is a Trademark of Bell Laboratories.
