    INTRODUCTION
    ------------

    The task is to check the syntax of an input string. Input string is a stream of ASCII
    characters terminated with a null-character ('\0'). Checking it using C language is
    difficult and hard to implement without bugs. It is hard to maintain and make changes when
    the syntax changes.

    This is because of a high redundancy of the C code. Large blocks of code are duplicated with
    only small changes. Even use of macros does not solve the problem because macros cannot
    erase the complexity of the problem.

    The resolution is to create a new language that will be highly oriented to our task. Once
    we describe a particular syntax, we are done. We can then focus on the code that implements
    the language. The size and complexity of it is relatively small than the code that directly
    checks the syntax.

    First, we must implement our new language. Here, the language is implemented in C, but it
    could also be implemented in any other language. The code is listed below. We must take
    a good care that it is bug free. This is simple because the code is simple and clean.

    Next, we must describe the syntax of our new language in itself. Once created and checked
    manually that it is correct, we can use it to check another scripts.

    Note that our new language loading code does not have to check the syntax. It is because we
    assume that the script describing itself is correct, and other scripts can be syntactically
    checked by the former script. The loading code must only do semantic checking which leads us to
    simple resolving references.

    THE LANGUAGE
    ------------

    Here I will describe the syntax of the new language (further called "Synek"). It is mainly a
    sequence of declarations terminated by a semicolon. The declaration consists of a symbol,
    which is an identifier, and its definition. A definition is in turn a sequence of specifiers
    connected with ".and" or ".or" operator. These operators cannot be mixed together in a one
    definition. Specifier can be a symbol, string, character, character range or a special
    keyword ".true" or ".false".

    On the very beginning of the script there is a declaration of a root symbol and is in the form:
        .syntax <root_symbol>;
    The <root_symbol> must be on of the symbols in declaration sequence. The syntax is correct if
    the root symbol evaluates to true. A symbol evaluates to true if the definition associated with
    the symbol evaluates to true. Definition evaluation depends on the operator used to connect
    specifiers in the definition. If ".and" operator is used, definition evaluates to true if and
    only if all the specifiers evaluate to true. If ".or" operator is used, definition evalutes to
    true if any of the specifiers evaluates to true. If definition contains only one specifier,
    it is evaluated as if it was connected with ".true" keyword by ".and" operator.

    If specifier is a ".true" keyword, it always evaluates to true.

    If specifier is a ".false" keyword, it always evaluates to false. Specifier evaluates to false
    when it does not evaluate to true.

    Character range specifier is in the form:
        '<first_character>' - '<second_character>'
    If specifier is a character range, it evaluates to true if character in the stream is greater
    or equal to <first_character> and less or equal to <second_character>. In that situation 
    the stream pointer is advanced to point to next character in the stream. All C-style escape
    sequences are supported although trigraph sequences are not. The comparisions are performed
    on 8-bit unsigned integers.

    Character specifier is in the form:
        '<single_character>'
    It evaluates to true if the following character range specifier evaluates to true:
        '<single_character>' - '<single_character>'

    String specifier is in the form:
        "<string>"
    Let N be the number of characters in <string>. Let <string>[i] designate i-th character in
    <string>. Then the string specifier evaluates to true if and only if for i in the range [0, N)
    the following character specifier evaluates to true:
        '<string>[i]'
    If <string>[i] is a quotation mark, '<string>[i]' is replaced with '<string>[i]'.

    Symbol specifier can be optionally preceded by a ".loop" keyword in the form:
        .loop <symbol>                  (1)
    where <symbol> is defined as follows:
        <symbol> <definition>;          (2)
    Construction (1) is replaced by the following code:
        <symbol$1>
    and declaration (2) is replaced by the following:
        <symbol$1> <symbol$2> .or .true;
        <symbol$2> <symbol> .and <symbol$1>;
        <symbol> <definition>;

    Synek supports also a register mechanizm. User can, in its SYN file, declare a number of
    registers that can be accessed in the syn body. Each reg has its name and a default value.
    The register is one byte wide. The C code can change the default value by calling
    grammar_set_reg8() with grammar id, register name and a new value. As we know, each rule is
    a sequence of specifiers joined with .and or .or operator. And now each specifier can be
    prefixed with a condition expression in a form ".if (<reg_name> <operator> <hex_literal>)"
    where <operator> can be == or !=. If the condition evaluates to false, the specifier
    evaluates to .false. Otherwise it evalutes to the specifier.

    ESCAPE SEQUENCES
    ----------------

    Synek supports all escape sequences in character specifiers. The mapping table is listed below.
    All occurences of the characters in the first column are replaced with the corresponding
    character in the second column.

        Escape sequence         Represents
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        \a                      Bell (alert)
        \b                      Backspace
        \f                      Formfeed
        \n                      New line
        \r                      Carriage return
        \t                      Horizontal tab
        \v                      Vertical tab
        \'                      Single quotation mark
        \"                      Double quotation mark
        \\                      Backslash
        \?                      Literal question mark
        \ooo                    ASCII character in octal notation
        \xhhh                   ASCII character in hexadecimal notation
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    RAISING ERRORS
    --------------

    Any specifier can be followed by a special construction that is executed when the specifier
    evaluates to false. The construction is in the form:
        .error <ERROR_TEXT>
    <ERROR_TEXT> is an identifier declared earlier by error text declaration. The declaration is
    in the form:
        .errtext <ERROR_TEXT> "<error_desc>"
    When specifier evaluates to false and this construction is present, parsing is stopped
    immediately and <error_desc> is returned as a result of parsing. The error position is also
    returned and it is meant as an offset from the beggining of the stream to the character that
    was valid so far. Example:

        (**** syntax script ****)

        .syntax program;
        .errtext MISSING_SEMICOLON      "missing ';'"
        program         declaration .and .loop space .and ';' .error MISSING_SEMICOLON .and
                        .loop space .and '\0';
        declaration     "declare" .and .loop space .and identifier;
        space           ' ';

        (**** sample code ****)

        declare foo ,

    In the example above checking the sample code will result in error message "missing ';'" and
    error position 12. The sample code is not correct. Note the presence of '\0' specifier to
    assure that there is no code after semicolon - only spaces.
    <error_desc> can optionally contain identifier surrounded by dollar signs $. In such a case,
    the identifier and dollar signs are replaced by a string retrieved by invoking symbol with
    the identifier name. The starting position is the error position. The lenght of the resulting
    string is the position after invoking the symbol.

    PRODUCTION
    ----------

    Synek not only checks the syntax but it can also produce (emit) bytes associated with specifiers
    that evaluate to true. That is, every specifier and optional error construction can be followed
    by a number of emit constructions that are in the form:
        .emit <parameter>
    <paramater> can be a HEX number, identifier, a star * or a dollar $. HEX number is preceded by
    0x or 0X. If <parameter> is an identifier, it must be earlier declared by emit code declaration
    in the form:
        .emtcode <identifier> <hex_number>

    When given specifier evaluates to true, all emits associated with the specifier are output
    in order they were declared. A star means that last-read character should be output instead
    of constant value. Example:

        (**** syntax script ****)

        .syntax foobar;
        .emtcode WORD_FOO       0x01
        .emtcode WORD_BAR       0x02
        foobar      FOO .emit WORD_FOO .or BAR .emit WORD_BAR .or .true .emit 0x00;
        FOO         "foo" .and SPACE;
        BAR         "bar" .and SPACE;
        SPACE       ' ' .or '\0';

        (**** sample text 1 ****)

        foo

        (**** sample text 2 ****)

        foobar

    For both samples the result will be one-element array. For first sample text it will be
    value 1, for second - 0. Note that every text will be accepted because of presence of
    .true as an alternative.

    Another example:

        (**** syntax script ****)

        .syntax declaration;
        .emtcode VARIABLE       0x01
        declaration     "declare" .and .loop space .and
                        identifier .emit VARIABLE .and          (1)
                        .true .emit 0x00 .and                   (2)
                        .loop space .and ';';
        space           ' ' .or '\t';
        identifier      .loop id_char .emit *;                  (3)
        id_char         'a'-'z' .or 'A'-'Z' .or '_';

        (**** sample code ****)

        declare    fubar;

    In specifier (1) symbol <identifier> is followed by .emit VARIABLE. If it evaluates to
    true, VARIABLE constant and then production of the symbol is output. Specifier (2) is used
    to terminate the string with null to signal when the string ends. Specifier (3) outputs
    all characters that make declared identifier. The result of sample code will be the
    following array:
        { 1, 'f', 'u', 'b', 'a', 'r', 0 }

    If .emit is followed by dollar $, it means that current position should be output. Current
    position is a 32-bit unsigned integer distance from the very beginning of the parsed string to
    first character consumed by the specifier associated with the .emit instruction. Current
    position is stored in the output buffer in Little-Endian convention (the lowest byte comes
    first).
