@defmodule[scribble/bnf]{The @racket[scribble/bnf] library
|
|
provides utilities for typesetting grammars.}
|
|
|
|
For example,
|
|
|
|
@verbatim[#:indent 2]|{
|
|
@(let ([open @litchar{(}]
|
|
[close @litchar{)}])
|
|
@BNF[(list @nonterm{expr}
|
|
@nonterm{id}
|
|
@BNF-seq[open @kleeneplus[@nonterm{expr}] close]
|
|
@BNF-seq[open @litchar{lambda}
|
|
open @kleenestar[@nonterm{id}] close
|
|
@nonterm{expr} close]
|
|
@nonterm{val})
|
|
(list @nonterm{val}
|
|
@BNF-alt[@nonterm{number} @nonterm{primop}])
|
|
(list @nonterm{id}
|
|
@elem{any name except for @litchar{lambda}})])
|
|
}|
|
|
|
|
produces the output
|
|
|
|
@(let ([open @litchar{(}]
|
|
[close @litchar{)}])
|
|
@BNF[(list @nonterm{expr}
|
|
@nonterm{id}
|
|
@BNF-seq[open @kleeneplus[@nonterm{expr}] close]
|
|
@BNF-seq[open @litchar{lambda}
|
|
open @kleenestar[@nonterm{id}] close
|
|
@nonterm{expr} close]
|
|
@nonterm{val})
|
|
(list @nonterm{val}
|
|
@BNF-alt[@nonterm{number} @nonterm{primop}])
|
|
(list @nonterm{id}

@defproc[(BNF [prod (cons element? (listof (or/c block? element?)))] ...) table?]{
|
|
|
|
Typesets a grammar table. Each production starts with an element
|
|
(typically constructed with @racket[nonterm]) for the non-terminal
|
|
being defined, and then a list of possibilities (typically constructed
|
|
with @racket[BNF-seq], etc.) to show on separate lines.}
|
|
|
|
@defproc[(nonterm (pre-content any/c) ...) element?]{
|
|
|
|
Typesets a non-terminal: italic in angle brackets.}
|
|
|
|
@defproc[(BNF-seq [elem element?] ...) element?]{
|
|
|
|
Typesets a sequence.}
|
|
|
|
@defproc[(BNF-seq-lines [elems (listof element?)] ...) block?]{
|
|
|
|
Typesets a sequence that is broken into multiple lines, where each
|
|
@racket[elems] is one line.}
|
|
|
|
@defproc[(BNF-group [pre-content any/c] ...) element?]{
|
|
|
|
Typesets a group surrounded by curly braces (so the entire group can
|
|
be repeated, for example).}
|
|
|
|
@defproc[(optional [pre-content any/c] ...) element?]{
|
|
|
|
Typesets an optional element: in square brackets.}
|
|
|
|
@defproc[(kleenestar [pre-content any/c] ...) element?]{
|
|
|
|
Typesets a 0-or-more repetition.}
|
|
|
|
@defproc[(kleeneplus [pre-content any/c] ...) element?]{
|
|
|
|
Typesets a 1-or-more repetition.}
|
|
|
|
@defproc[(kleenerange [n any/c] [m any/c] [pre-content any/c] ...) element?]{
|
|
|
|
Typesets a @racket[n]-to-@racket[m] repetition. The @racket[n] and
|
|
@racket[m] arguments are converted to a string using @racket[(format
|
|
"~a" n)] and @racket[(format "~a" m)].}
|
|
|
|
@defproc[(BNF-alt [elem element?] ...) element?]{
|
|
|
|
Typesets alternatives for a production's right-hand side to appear on
|
|
a single line. The result is normally used as a single possibility in
|
|
a production list for @racket[BNF].}
|
|
|
|
@defthing[BNF-etc string?]{
|
|
|
|
A string to use for omitted productions or content.}
