  and taught the two emitters not to dispatch on it. no failing tests.
- added t::lib::AST for AST regression tests.
- updated P::G::Rule.pmc accordingly.
- added t/ast/00-basic.t to test detailed AST structures using Data::Dumper.
- introduced $::PCR_SEED to provide a way to avoid randomness
  in the generated code
- added a corrosponding -s option to util/compile_p6grammar.pl.
- made util/update-rule-pmc-new to specify a fixed value for -s.
- added more tests to t/emitter/00-basic.t for the ratchet emitter.
- added the very useful "--- Layout" support to t::lib::Emitter.

0.25  2007-07-09
- Pugs::Emitter::Grammar::Perl5 : set sigspace for "rule XXX {...}"
  and calls the backtracking rule emitter for "regex XXX {...}".
- the ratchet rule emitter now saves the emitter params as special
  comments in the generated code to help debugging.
- fixed a bug in the parameter ordering of the ratchet emitter,
  now examples/digits.grammar no longer loops.
- added examples/langs.grammar (this file contains two grammars and
  the latter calls the subrules of the former and it works!)
- added examples/langs2.grammar to demonstrate the use of
  the "rule foo { ... }" syntax.
- added examples/Grammar.grammar which is the grammar spec
  for Perl 6 regexes themselves.
  this grammar file can be compiled by util/compile_p6grammar.pl
  down to a .pm file and replaces lib/Pugs/Grammar/Rule.pmc.
- added util/update-rule-pmc-new to automate this process.
- updated Rule.pmc using this new approach. It's about 4 times
  faster than the traditional v6.pm approach!
- compile_p6grammar.pl: prepends 'use strict; use warnings' and
  header comments to the .pm file generated.
- Pugs::Compiler::Regex now honors environment PCR_NO_CACHE,
  which can be used to disable the caching mechanism of PCR
  (recommended for PCR developers only).

0.24  2007-07-08
- added the bash script util/update-rule-pmc to automate the process
  of compiling Pugs/Grammar/Rule2.pm (in p6) down to Pugs/Grammar/Rule.pmc
  (in p5).
  it supports command line arguments "install", "revert", and "update".
  now we can call it to generate/update Rule.pmc like this:
    util/update-rule-pmc # compile only
    util/update-rule-pmc install # install only
    util/update-rule-pmc update  # compile and then install
    util/update-rule-pmc revert # svn revert .../Rule.pmc
- added util/gen-rule-pmc.pl to post-process the
  .pmc file generated by v6.pm from Pugs/Grammar/Rule2.pm
- implemented Pugs::Compiler::Grammar for compiling grammar spec like this:
    grammar Foo;
    token idents { <ident>* }
    rule blah { 'a'* <?ws>? <idents> }
    grammar Bar;
    regex hey { <alpha>**{2} }
- implemented Pugs::Emitter::Grammar::Perl5 for emitting Perl 5 source
  from grammar ASTs.
- added t/04-compiler-grammar.t for testing P::C::Grammar.
- added examples/adder.grammar and examples/digits.grammar which can be
  compiled by compile_p6grammar.pl down to Perl 5 module file.
- removed util/compile_p6grammar-token.pl since it's useless now.
- Makefile.PL - added File::Slurp as a new dependency to PCR.
- reimplemented util/compile_p6grammar.pl using Pugs::Compiler::Grammar
- Pugs::Grammar::Rule2.pm - allowed global code blocks "%{ ... %}" in
  the grammar spec.
- Pugs::Grammar::Rule2.pm - added new tokens "alnum", "alpha", "digit",
  "named_regex", "verbatim", "grammar", and "spec".
- updated Pugs::Grammar::Rule.pmc with util/update-rule-pmc accordingly.
- Makefile.PL - installs compile_p6grammar.pl by default.
- Pugs::Emitter::Rule::Perl5::Ratchet - fixed a bug regarding closures
  (or actions) in p6 regexes, which does not contain "return".
- P::G::Rule2.pm: removed the workaround for { die "..." } since i've
  already fixed it (see above).
- added t/declare/01-sigspace.t to test Pugs::Compiler::Rule's sigspace support.
- fixed a bug in Pugs::Compiler::Rule's compile method regarding modifiers
  with undef values.
- more POD documentation for Pugs::Compiler::Rule and Pugs::Compiler::Regex.
- fixed POD syntax errors in Precedence.pm and Parsec.pm.
- added t/00-pod-coverage.t and t/00-pod.t.
- fixed the :continue (:c) issue for the ratchet emitter by sticking with
  the original $str variable everywhere without passing sub arguments by copy.
- fixed a bug in Pugs::Compiler::Regex->compile regarding params handling.
- calls use_test_base() in Makefile.PL to bundle Test::Base with inc/.
added t/declare to hold declarative tests for PCR
- added t/lib/Regex.pm which subclasses Test::Base and serves
  as the tester scaffold for t/declare/*.t

0.23  2007-05-08

- token with non-greedy quantifier is transformed into a greedy quantifier
  with lookahead:   a b*? c  ->  a [ <!before c> b ]* c
