Parser JS/CC and Code Mirror combined

Well I was thinking about making a nice edit area for a wiki, with a markup with a real defined context free grammar parsed by a
LALR.

Why? well you will have nested bracket structures even in text....
Mediawiki fails here, it seams to be just some regular expressions matching.. :-(

Ok I found this nice parser JS/CC by Jan Max Meyer,
a great tool beacuse:

• its completly done in javascript, so you can parse at the client like on the server
• has a flexible template mechanism
  

an this great Code Editor: CodeMirror by Marijn Haverbeke.
I liked it more that all the others because:

• It uses a parser, and you can extend it with your own parser.
  
• It supports long documents, as each line brack has a own copy of the parser state (a continuation sort of. So for the next line simply take the parser an continue parsing.
• It supports undo/redo
• You can earn a lot of programming techniques by looking at the code :-)
  

Well so why not combine JS/CC and CodeMirror ?

I created an js/cc driver_editor.js_ template which can be used to create a parser that fits right into the CodeMirror editor ...anybody interested? Send an email to me :-)
