Re: BNF grammar

[Bertalan Fodor (LilyPondTool)]

My experience was when implementing the Java-based LilyPond parser that this is actually useless. Ok, it helps in the first steps, but later I found out that using the original bison file is the best option.

Greetings,
I would like to get the pure (E)BNF grammar of the LilyPond language. I looked
for it in the package, but only found the bison parser code. Is it available
anywhere, or could it be generated somehow?
Thanks in advance!

Here's a link to a grammar specification (not (E)BNF, but still reasonably
clear) for an old version of LilyPond, along with a python script that
created the file from the Bison output file.
