Hi,
I downloaded lalr-v2_3_0.tgz from http://snow.iro.umontreal.ca/?viewpkg=lalr. I then copied lalr.scm and calc.scm from the tgz into a clean directory and tried to load lalr.scm in gsi and got this error -

root@kashyap-desktop:~/explore# gsi
Gambit v4.8.7

> (load "lalr.scm")
*** ERROR IN "lalr.scm"@12.20 -- Ill-formed procedure call

Is there some resource I can use to get a headstart with parsing java/csharp like source files in gambit?

Would a combinator-based (parsec like) parser be a good idea?
