I do agree that the book isn't that good, but the link wasn't meant for 
the book, but for the parser generator. I personally, do not use it, I 
just gave a couple of links of parser generators I know. I use ANTRL 
(which generates code for C++, C# and other languages as well as Java) 
and  SableCC.

All the best

Fidel.

PS: The bible for compiler writing is the dragon book (Compilers: 
Principles, Techniques and Tools, by Alfred Aho), no doubt about it.
