Package ebmf implements an ISO/IEC 14977
Extended BackusNaur Form parser, verifiers,
and additional related helpers for AsciiGoat
A syntax highlighter for vim and a copy of the final draft of the standard
are included in the doc/ directory. The official standard can be downloaded from
http://standards.iso.org/ittf/PubliclyAvailableStandards/s026153_ISO_IEC_14977_1996(E).zip
An uberly simplified version of the EBNF grammar looks like:
letter = "A" | "B" | "C" | "D" | "E" | "F" | "G"
| "H" | "I" | "J" | "K" | "L" | "M" | "N"
| "O" | "P" | "Q" | "R" | "S" | "T" | "U"
| "V" | "W" | "X" | "Y" | "Z" ;
digit = "0" | "1" | "2" | "3" | "4" | "5" | "6" | "7" | "8" | "9" ;
symbol = "[" | "]" | "{" | "}" | "(" | ")" | "<" | ">"
| "'" | '"' | "=" | "|" | "." | "," | ";" ;
character = letter | digit | symbol | "_" ;
identifier = letter , { letter | digit | "_" } ;
terminal = "'" , character , { character } , "'"
| '"' , character , { character } , '"' ;
lhs = identifier ;
rhs = identifier
| terminal
| "[" , rhs , "]"
| "{" , rhs , "}"
| "(" , rhs , ")"
| rhs , "|" , rhs
| rhs , "," , rhs ;
rule = lhs , "=" , rhs , ";" ;
grammar = { rule } ;
