# Allows specifying rules as strings using the exact same grammar that treetop
# does, minus the actions. This is on one hand a good example of a fully
# fledged parser and on the other hand might even turn out really useful.
#
# This can be viewed as an extension to parslet and might even be hosted in
# its own gem one fine day.
#
# NOT FINISHED & EXPERIMENTAL
#

# Parslet::Expression.new("'a' 'b'")
