2. Spicy: A Parser Generator For Network Protocols

Note

As you work with Spicy, you’ll see a different name pop up sometimes: Spicy, which is Spicy’s early name from when the project started. We have since renamed the system, as it is not really related to the original Spicy system at all. However, as the renaming remains a work in progress, Spicy’s tools and source code still use the old terminology for the most part.
