[COPY] --- T2-COPYRIGHT-NOTE-END --- [I] A semantic parser of source files [T] Sparse is a semantic parser of source files. It's neither a compiler [T] (although it could be used as a front-end for one) nor a preprocessor [T] (although it contains a preprocessing phase). It is meant to be a small, [T] simple, easy to use library. Its function is to create a semantic parse [T] tree for some arbitrary user for further analysis. It's not a tokenizer, [T] nor is it a generic context-free parser. Context (semantics) is what [T] it's all about: figuring out not just what the grouping of tokens are, [T] but what the types are that the grouping implies.
