ITP: kimwitu++

[Michael Piefel <piefel@informatik.hu-berlin.de>]

I have already packaged Kimwitu++. The license is GPL. As I am still not a
Debian developer, I will go and look for a sponsor now.

Package: kimwitu++
Architecture: any
Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}
Recommends: g++
Suggests: bison | byacc
Description: A (syntax-)tree-handling tool (term processor)
 Kimwitu++ is a  system that  supports the  construction of programs that use
 trees or terms as their main data structure.  It allows you to define, store
 and operate on trees with typed nodes. Each type of node has a specific number
 of sons,  and expects these sons to have specific types.  The most popular
 example of such trees are syntax trees.
 .
 The nodes are defined in a Yacc-like fashion.  The tree can be unparsed (ie.
 treewalk) and rewritten (ie. term substitution). Kimwitu++ gives you powerful
 pattern matching for specifying unparse and rewrite rules.
 .
 Kimwitu++ is an extension to C++. It introduces Yacc-like node definitions,
 the unparse and rewrite rules,  and extensions for pattern matching within
 functions. It will translate its input files into pure C++.
 .
 To build  the tree you might use a parser  generated with Bison,  but you are
 free to use other tools.  There also exists Kimwitu (also packaged for Debian)
 which interfaces with C instead of C++ which can also be used in C++ projects,
 but Kimwitu++ has some extensions one might consider useful.
