;; ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
;;
;;
;; This is part of ebnf2ps package.
;;
;; This package defines a parser for EBNF.
;;
;; See ebnf2ps.el for documentation.
;;
;;
;; EBNF Syntax
;; -----------
;;
;; The current EBNF that ebnf2ps accepts has the following constructions:
;;
;;    ;			comment (until end of line)
;;    A			non-terminal
;;    "C"		terminal
;;    ?C?		special
;;    $A		default non-terminal
;;    $"C"		default terminal
;;    $?C?		default special
;;    A = B.		production (A is the header and B the body)
;;    C D		sequence (C occurs before D)
;;    C | D		alternative (C or D occurs)
;;    A - B		exception (A excluding B, B without any non-terminal)
;;    n * A		repetition (A repeats at least n (integer) times)
;;    n * n A		repetition (A repeats exactly n (integer) times)
;;    n * m A		repetition (A repeats at least n (integer) and at most
;;			m (integer) times)
;;    (C)		group (expression C is grouped together)
;;    [C]		optional (C may or not occurs)
;;    C+		one or more occurrences of C
;;    {C}+		one or more occurrences of C
;;    {C}*		zero or more occurrences of C
;;    {C}		zero or more occurrences of C
;;    C / D		equivalent to: C {D C}*
;;    {C || D}+		equivalent to: C {D C}*
;;    {C || D}*		equivalent to: [C {D C}*]
;;    {C || D}		equivalent to: [C {D C}*]
;;
;; The EBNF syntax written using the notation above is:
;;
;;    EBNF = {production}+.
;;
;;    production = non_terminal "=" body ".".   ;; production
;;
;;    body = {sequence || "|"}*.                ;; alternative
;;
;;    sequence = {exception}*.                  ;; sequence
;;
;;    exception = repeat [ "-" repeat].         ;; exception
;;
;;    repeat = [ integer "*" [ integer ]] term. ;; repetition
;;
;;    term = factor
;;         | [factor] "+"                       ;; one-or-more
;;         | [factor] "/" [factor]              ;; one-or-more
;;         .
;;
;;    factor = [ "$" ] "\"" terminal "\""       ;; terminal
;;           | [ "$" ] non_terminal             ;; non-terminal
;;           | [ "$" ] "?" special "?"          ;; special
;;           | "(" body ")"                     ;; group
;;           | "[" body "]"                     ;; zero-or-one
;;           | "{" body [ "||" body ] "}+"      ;; one-or-more
;;           | "{" body [ "||" body ] "}*"      ;; zero-or-more
;;           | "{" body [ "||" body ] "}"       ;; zero-or-more
;;           .
;;
;;    non_terminal = "[!#%&'*-,0-:<>@-Z\\\\^-z~\\240-\\377]+".
;;    ;; that is, a valid non_terminal accepts decimal digits, letters (upper
;;    ;; and lower), 8-bit accentuated characters,
;;    ;; "!", "#", "%", "&", "'", "*", "+", ",", ":",
;;    ;; "<", ">", "@", "\", "^", "_", "`" and "~".
;;
;;    terminal = "\\([^\"\\]\\|\\\\[ -~\\240-\\377]\\)+".
;;    ;; that is, a valid terminal accepts any printable character (including
;;    ;; 8-bit accentuated characters) except `"', as `"' is used to delimit a
;;    ;; terminal.  Also, accepts escaped characters, that is, a character
;;    ;; pair starting with `\' followed by a printable character, for
;;    ;; example: \", \\.
;;
;;    special = "[^?\\000-\\010\\012-\\037\\177-\\237]*".
;;    ;; that is, a valid special accepts any printable character (including
;;    ;; 8-bit accentuated characters) and tabs except `?', as `?' is used to
;;    ;; delimit a special.
;;
;;    integer = "[0-9]+".
;;    ;; that is, an integer is a sequence of one or more decimal digits.
;;
;;    comment = ";" "[^\\n\\000-\\010\\016-\\037\\177-\\237]*" "\\n".
;;    ;; that is, a comment starts with the character `;' and terminates at end
;;    ;; of line.  Also, it only accepts printable characters (including 8-bit
;;    ;; accentuated characters) and tabs.
