[from harvard!seismo!ircam!mf (mf)] Attribute Grammars have been successfully used in a "real" system, a generator for syntax-directed editors (i.e., editors which "know" the syntax of the language). The work I'm referring to was done at Cornell University by Tom Reps and Tim Teitelbaum. They published several very readable papers, too. Should you wish more information, I suggest you contact them (T. Teitelbaum is cornell!tt or tt@cornell.arpa).
