I've been harping about Semantic Dictionary Encoding (SDE) ever since I first read the paper back in ...

It ended up at about 1KB of bytecode, ...

About 400 bytes.

An 'assembly' language for parsing

I've mentioned my forays into push parsers previously. But after looking at that approach, I realised I needed a bit more flexibility. So I got the idea of designing a tiny assembly like language for building push parsers with. This is analogous to building an NFA or DFA, but with ...
