** %destructor

I think we should document it as experimental, and allow its use in
|
||||
the next releases. But we also need to port it to GLR. What about
|

lalr1.cc? Well, read what Hans reported, maybe we don't want

%detructor. On the other hand, there is no reason not to provide it:

users can avoid its use.

Have a look at the Lemon parser generator: instead of $1, $2 etc. they

can name the values. This is much more pleasant. For instance:

But instead of using $a etc., we can use regular variables. And

instead of using (), I propose to use `:' (again). Paul suggests

supporting `->' in addition to `:' to separate LHS and RHS. In other

words:

r:exp -> a:exp '+' b:exp { r = a + b; };

That requires an significant improvement of the grammar parser. Using

GLR would be nice. It also requires that Bison know the type of the

symbols (which will be useful for %include anyway). So we have some

time before...
