Re: [Boost-users] [spirit] first steps

Definitely. I'd start looking at the list parser (operator %), Kleene and plus operators (operator*, operator+), the primitive character parsers, and at attribute handling allowing to fill your data structure directly during the parsing. Did you see Spirit's web site (http://boost-spirit.com/)? The examples and tests provided with Spirit are a good source of information as well (in addition to the docs).

Thanks for the pointer! I used the spirit docs included in boost 1.42 so far.
