Menhir and Ocamllex LSP client

VS Code extension providing IntelliSense for Menhir grammars and Ocamllex lexers. In order to work, it needs the Menhir language server menhir-lsp. Install it with opam, the OCaml package manager:

opam install menhir-lsp

or download the binary from the latest release and add it to your PATH.

The extension will activate and launch the server upon opening a file ending with .mly or .mll.

Important: This extension does not provide syntax highlighting for the two languages. The OCaml Platform extension already takes care of that; make sure you have it installed before using this. The Menhir extension aims to complement by providing completions and code browsing features in those files.

Enjoy ease of navigation and rock-solid language support in your grammars!
