This folder contains documentation about the Nom interpreted and compilable language and the ℙ𝕖𝕡 Pattern Engine for parsing.
Nom is a language with a syntax similar to sed but hopefully less cryptic than SED . Whereas sed matches and replaces regular expression patterns, nom recognises and transforms, translates or compiles context-free and context-sensitive text-patterns or languages.
I keep a journal of mundane everyday work that I carry out on the
ℙ𝕖𝕡 🙵 ℕ𝕠𝕞 system at /doc/pepnom.doc.journal.html and I sometimes write
more philosophical documents in a blog format in the nomblog
There is a document about how you could help develop the nom system
here and there is a list of things that I
need to do
The folder /doc/commands/ contains information about
each command in the nom language such as the add command, the
push command and so on. The command index
contains a list of commands
and links to their documentation
The folder /doc/syntax/ contains information about the syntax of the
nom language, as it is defined in the nom compiler bumble.sf.net/books/pars/compile.pss . The
page /doc/syntax/doc.dir.index.html has a list of files in the syntax
documentation.
The folder /doc/machine/ contains documentation about
the pep virtual machine and each of it’s parts such as
the stack , the tape and the workspace buffer among
others
The example folder at /eg/ contains example nom scripts, each of which
contain a header of documentation about what they do. The translation
folder at /tr/ contains the nom scripts that can translate nom scripts
into other languages such as
rust |
dart |
perl |
lua |
go |
java |
javascript |
ruby |
python |
tcl |
c
and each of
those scripts also contains a documentation header explaining it’s function.
A not very up-to-date list of the documents in this folder is available.
This website is also generated by the
ℕ𝕠𝕞 script /eg/text.tohtml.pss and the
format of this “plain-text” is documented at /eg/text.tohtml.format.html . I
hope some of this is of interest. Enjoy the Deniliquin Fig Tree below.
