;;; Commentary:

;; This facility allows writing regexps in a sexp-based language
;; instead of strings.  Regexps in the `rx' notation are easier to
;; read, write and maintain; they can be indented and commented in a
;; natural way, and are easily composed by program code.
;; The translation to string regexp is done by a macro and does not
;; incur any extra processing during run time.  Example:
;;
;;  (rx bos (or (not (any "^"))
;;              (seq "^" (or " *" "["))))
;;
;; => "\\`\\(?:[^^]\\|\\^\\(?: \\*\\|\\[\\)\\)"
;;
;; The notation is much influenced by and retains some compatibility with
;; Olin Shivers's SRE, with concessions to Emacs regexp peculiarities,
;; and the older Emacs package Sregex.

;;; Code:

;; The `rx--translate...' functions below return (REGEXP . PRECEDENCE),
;; where REGEXP is a list of string expressions that will be
;; concatenated into a regexp, and PRECEDENCE is one of
;;
;;  t    -- can be used as argument to postfix operators (eg. "a")
;;  seq  -- can be concatenated in sequence with other seq or higher (eg. "ab")
;;  lseq -- can be concatenated to the left of rseq or higher (eg. "^a")
;;  rseq -- can be concatenated to the right of lseq or higher (eg. "a$")
;;  nil  -- can only be used in alternatives (eg. "a\\|b")
;;
;; They form a lattice:
;;
;;           t          highest precedence
;;           |
;;          seq
;;         /   \
;;      lseq   rseq
;;         \   /
;;          nil         lowest precedence

For bindings without an ARGS list, NAME is defined as an alias
for the `rx' expression RX.  Where ARGS is supplied, NAME is
defined as an `rx' form with ARGS as argument list.  The
parameters are bound from the values in the (NAME ...) form and
are substituted in RX.  ARGS can contain `&rest' parameters,
whose values are spliced into RX where the parameter name occurs.

Any previous definitions with the same names are shadowed during
the expansion of BODY only.
For extensions when using the `rx' macro, use `rx-let'.
To make global rx extensions, use `rx-define'.
