Bernd,
sometimes the current error Messages are too general and don't help to locate the offending statement. If e.g. the parse expects "As" and finds "as" it should tell just that. I think this puts a large burden on newbies.
Kind regards
Udo

To implement a more meaningful error output will be a bigger task. V2 will come with it, I think.

Bernd,
thanks for the answer. Do you have an obj-b grammar at hand that could be used as a starting point for volunteers?
Kind regards
Udo

Information about the syntax (what keywords etc.) is in the documentation. (in the essentials doc, I think)
Having an project explaining and showing all syntax possibilities would be nice as well. Maybe this is a start for volunteers?
