    <thetext>To avoid violating STD68, I suppose it could be written like:

 no-c-end =
  *( (%x00-%x2c / %x2e-%x10ffff)
   / %x2d (%x00-%x2c / %x2e-%x10ffff)
   / %x2d %x2d (%x00-%x3d / %x3f-%x10ffff) )
   ; any string that doesn&apos;t contain the substring &quot;--&gt;&quot;

and similar for no-c-start.</thetext>
