Daniel, I see you've run into two of the newsgroup trolls (TNP and
"Pointed Head"). You'll be best off ignoring them - they can't help
you, and will cause you no end of grief.
I found your description quite clear, and really don't care WHY you need
it (or what keywords you used to search). I just don't know of any code
samples for what you need. Last time I needed something like that was
several years ago (and another language, but that's besides the point).
It took a while, but I got it working for that project.
But I don't know of anything like this available. You might drop a line
to the webmaster of algebra.com. He used to be a regular on here, and
he has an expression parser in his code. He might be able to help, or
maybe not. I haven't seen him around here for at least 2-3 years.
