Due to the special lexical structure of XPath, and the lack of parser generation in Plex, no attempt was made to use this tool. Trap Trap [Ern99] supports the specification of intermediate representations (IR) as part of the grammar definitions, and subsequently generates parsers that parse into the specified IR, including support for unparsing. It currently uses kwParsing as its underly...

Backing out of global system changes typically...
...help from Python's parser than we can currently get. I hope to fix this in a future Python release by making the parser recognize super. In the mean time, here's a trick you can apply.
