To name a few: http://ssw.jku.at/Coco/ Coco/R parser generator and book (older editions available on the web) contains pretty simple Taste compiler. http://www.cs.sjsu.edu/~louden/cmptext/ Compiler Construction by Kenneth C. Louden. Rather old, but still might be interesting. http://foja.dcs.fmph.uniba.sk/kompilatory/docs/compiler.pdf Compiler Construction using Flex and Bison by Anthony A. Aaby. and others.
