Get a decent "yacc" and "lex" and the appropriate ".y" and ".l" files
for those languages. Should be available somewhere under GNU
license.
Making yacc simply *recognize* the constructs, rather than generate
code for them, isn't overwhelmingly difficult, except for figuring out
what to do with shift/reduce conflicts. (Probably just ignore them
for your purposes?)
