So a few years ago, I started out writing a ruby implementation of the  
perl6  
grammar/rule/pattern matching (focusing on named tokens) in ruby. A few  
months ago, I pulled it back out, dusted it off and actually made it  
work.  
I have no idea if anyone is interested or not, but you can find it here:  
[http://github.com/gymbrall/ruby\_perl6grammar](http://github.com/gymbrall/ruby_perl6grammar)  
Please understand that most of the time, I had no idea what I was doing,  
I  
was just hacking and having a bit of fun with Ruby…

Thanks
