Tyabt

Tyabt is an OCaml implementation of many-sorted abstract binding trees. Abstract binding trees (ABTs) are similar to abstract syntax trees, but also keep track of variable scopes. Many-sorted ABTs support multiple syntactic classes, known as sorts. This library uses GADTs and phantom types to statically ensure that only syntactically valid ABTs are representable.

ABTs are described in Robert Harper's textbook, Practical Foundations for Programming Languages, and are inspired by the notation of the Nuprl proof development system.
