On lexicographic enumeration of regular and context-free languages

We show that it is possible to efficiently enumerate the words of a regular language in lexicographic order. The time needed for generating the next word is O(n) when enumerating words of length n. We also define a class of context-free languages for which efficient enumeration is possible.
