The TextTransformers owes its origin some publications mentioned below. I have to thank all of the authors.

The TextTransformer is based on the concept for the top down compiler compiler Coco from P. Rechenberg and H. Mössenböck, which they have published together in their book: Ein Compiler-Generator für Mikrocomputer, Carl Hanser Verlag München Wien 1988.

H. Mössenböck (ETH Zürich) has written the original version of Coco in Oberon-2. This version was ported to Modula-2  from Marc Brandis (ETH Zürich) and Pat Terry (Rhodes University, Grahamstown, South Africa). Finally Frankie Arzu (Universidad del Valle, Guatemala, Central America) has published a version of Coco in c.

The actual versions of Coco or. Coco/R, which can produce also code in other target languages than c++, can be found at:

http://www.ssw.uni-linz.ac.at/Reserach/Projects/#Coco

The TextTransformer makes use of some boost libraries.

http://www.boost.org

These libraries are also required to compile the code which is produced by the TextTransformer.

The source code for the regular expressions is from Dr. John Maddock.

The Format library of Samuel Krempp. It is used in the  interpreter for the optional formatting of the output.

The portable functions for the path and file treatment are based on the filesystem library from Beman Dawes.

The "ATBinHex" component of Alexey Torgashin was used for the input viewer..

http://atorg.net.ru/delphi/atbinhex.htm

The viewer was extended by the possibility to set breakpoints. The exteded version is available at

http://www.texttransformer.org

The ATBinHex is subject to  the MOZILLA PUBLIC LICENSE Version 1.1, which is added there too,

My special thanks to Dr. Hans-Peter Diettrich, who gave me some valuable notes to improve the program and Andreas Busch, who helped me to make TextTransformer multi-user compatible.
