MifParser

Parses Adobe FrameMaker MIF files.

Parsing and Interpretation

MifParser separates parsing from interpretation.

MIF source -> Parser -> Paragraph / List / etc. -> Interpreter -> heading / body / list / etc.

The Parser reads raw MIF and creates Ruby elements.

• ParagraphParser parses <Para> blocks.
• TableParser parses tables, rows, and cells.
• ListParser is different: MIF lists are represented as paragraphs, so ParagraphParser calls ListParser to decide whether a parsed paragraph should become a Paragraph or List.

The Interpreter determines what parsed elements mean:

• ParagraphInterpreter → heading or body
• ListInterpreter → list type, level, marker
• TableInterpreter → table data
