The Intermetrics Ada compiler (S/370, 1750a, etc.)
was implemented in Ada, using a LALR parser generator
itself implemented in Ada.  The parser generator
is based on the parser generator used to develop
the NYU Ada interpreter (Ada-ED), and provides
extensive support for syntactic error correction.

This compiler was initially
built under the Ada Integrated Environment contract
with Rome Air Development Center (RADC).  A validated
version for the Amdahl UTS operating system was delivered
to RADC several years ago, in source and executable form.

Newer versions are available directly from Intermetrics.
However, the LALR parser generator is not currently
a separate product.
