JavaSketchit was able to export the func- tional source code for the prototype in Java. Our approach allows users to write down their own visual lan- guage and removes the existing limitation of one pair of gestures per widget. The resulting parser became ap- plicable in different contexts besides designing user interfaces. The result is a functional implementation of a parser designed to handle Relational Adjacency Grammars customized by the user..Calligraphic InterfaceVisual ParserVisual Syntax ParsingVisual GrammarRelational Adjacency GrammarWidgetsGesturesSketchesJavaSketchIt2 – Using Relational Adjacency Grammars for Visual Syntax Parsing10.2312/pt.20061540119-122
