Token Position Tracking in LALRPOP
When developing parsers, it is often crucial to identify the exact byte offset of tokens within the input stream. This capability is particularly valuable for generating precise error messages or for implementing featurse like syntax highlighting and linting.
LALRPOP facilitates this through two dedicated tracking macros: @L and @R. The @L macr ...
