Hi,

    I am a practitioner of bottom up parsing by yacc and similar tools
for some time now.

    However, till date, I am flummoxed by error handling & recovery.

    How far is impressive error handling & recovery possible by LR(1) parsers ?

    What would be good references for the subject?

    As an aside, do the famous compilers use LR(1) parsing ?

Sincerely,
Seima Rao
