Talk more about parsing

Open tokenrove opened this issue 8 years ago • 1 comments

Lexing into words, and the strange interrelationship with parsing, especially once quoting is introduced, is really hard, and we don't talk about it at all here. It will be easier to expand this when I make pedagoguish, frosh, and squish public, each of which uses a different parsing strategy.
