Does this information mean that the software library "Menhir" is not so optional at the moment?

Is the tool "ocamlyacc" sufficient for this data processing so far?

I have got an other impression through the years.

Your software supports source code transformations also without including header files
and other pre-processing stuff.

Example:
The option "--include-headers-for-types" was added by the release "Coccinelle 1.0.0-rc22".

A developer should decide whether header information is needed for a script in the semantic
patch language or not.


Would you like to increase the usage of "Menhir" as a LR(1) parser generator for the OCaml
programming language.

Regards,
Markus
