Topic: Use pragmas for the prolog?
15:09:05 [Steven]
Norm: Pragmas need scope.
15:09:47 [Steven]
Steven: And how to identify where a pragma applies
15:10:29 [Steven]
John: I think a pragma at the start should apply to the whole grammar.
15:10:43 [Steven]
Norm: The Balisage paper solves this
15:10:51 [Steven]
Steven: I definitely need to reread that then
15:11:47 [Steven]
s/pragma/pragma in the prolog/
15:12:24 [Steven]
John: Pragmas in the prolog should have a different syntax
15:13:04 [Steven]
Topic: A subtraction operator
15:17:51 [Steven]
[John explains his subtraction proposal]
15:18:26 [norm]
https://github.com/invisibleXML/ixml/issues/249
15:24:45 [Steven]
John: Do we want to handle cases like the one Nico proposed for excluding "XML"
15:26:04 [Steven]
Norm: If you can recast subtraction as a modification of the grammar, that would be a way of saying it applies to all parsing algorithms.
15:26:33 [Steven]
... but I would be wary of something that we don't know how to do in other parsers.
15:27:09 [Steven]
John: I'm pushing it in programming language parsing.
15:28:24 [Steven]
Norm: We need a generic solution
15:29:41 [Steven]
Steven: Needs research
15:30:26 [Steven]
ACTION: Norm to ask Gunther about subtractions
