Description: Parser Infrastructure for Emacsen
The Semantic Bovinator's goal is to provide an intermediate API for
authors of language agnostic tools who want to deal with languages in
a generic way. It also provides a simple way for Mode Authors, who
are experts in their language, to provide a parser for those tool
authors, without knowing anything about those tools.

Semantic is now a part of CEDET (Collection of Emacs Development
Environment Tools).

I am not an Emacs user, so I do not know if this is really it. You could
use "aptitude" tool to find out if some package you use depends on
"semantic".
