.Sp
results in an error when a parser is built from this grammar (since the
grammar parser has no way of knowing whether the first > is a \*(L"less than\*(R"
or the end of the \f(CW\*(C`<reject:...>\*(C'\fR.
.Sp
To overcome this problem, put the condition inside a do{} block:
.Sp
.Vb 1
\&        line: cmd <reject: do{$thiscolumn > max}> data
.Ve
.Sp
Note that the same problem may occur in other directives that take
arguments. The same solution will work in all cases.
.IP "Skipping between terminals" 4
.IX Item "Skipping between terminals"
The \f(CW\*(C`<skip>\*(C'\fR directive enables the terminal prefix used in
a production to be changed. For example:
.Sp
.Vb 1
\&        OneLiner: Command <skip:\*(Aq[ \et]*\*(Aq> Arg(s) /;/
.Ve
.Sp
causes only blanks and tabs to be skipped before terminals in the \f(CW\*(C`Arg\*(C'\fR
subrule (and any of \fIits\fR subrules>, and also before the final \f(CW\*(C`/;/\*(C'\fR terminal.
Once the production is complete, the previous terminal prefix is
reinstated. Note that this implies that distinct productions of a rule
must reset their terminal prefixes individually.
.Sp
The \f(CW\*(C`<skip>\*(C'\fR directive evaluates to the \fIprevious\fR terminal prefix,
so it's easy to reinstate a prefix later in a production:
.Sp
.Vb 1
\&        Command: <skip:","> CSV(s) <skip:$item[1]> Modifier
.Ve
.Sp
The value specified after the colon is interpolated into a pattern, so all of
the following are equivalent (though their efficiency increases down the list):
.Sp
.Vb 1
\&        <skip: "$colon|$comma">   # ASSUMING THE VARS HOLD THE OBVIOUS VALUES
\&
\&        <skip: \*(Aq:|,\*(Aq>
\&
\&        <skip: q{[:,]}>
\&
\&        <skip: qr/[:,]/>
.Ve
.Sp
There is no way of directly setting the prefix for
an entire rule, except as follows:
.Sp
.Vb 3
\&        Rule: <skip: \*(Aq[ \et]*\*(Aq> Prod1
\&            | <skip: \*(Aq[ \et]*\*(Aq> Prod2a Prod2b
\&            | <skip: \*(Aq[ \et]*\*(Aq> Prod3
.Ve
.Sp
or, better:
.Sp
.Vb 6
\&        Rule: <skip: \*(Aq[ \et]*\*(Aq>
\&            (
\&                Prod1
\&              | Prod2a Prod2b
\&              | Prod3
\&            )
.Ve
.Sp
\&\fBNote: Up to release 1.51 of Parse::RecDescent, an entirely different
mechanism was used for specifying terminal prefixes. The current method
is not backwards-compatible with that early approach. The current approach
is stable and will not to change again.\fR
.IP "Resynchronization" 4
.IX Item "Resynchronization"
The \f(CW\*(C`<resync>\*(C'\fR directive provides a visually distinctive
means of consuming some of the text being parsed, usually to skip an
erroneous input. In its simplest form \f(CW\*(C`<resync>\*(C'\fR simply
consumes text up to and including the next newline (\f(CW"\en"\fR)
character, succeeding only if the newline is found, in which case it
causes its surrounding rule to return zero on success.
.Sp
In other words, a \f(CW\*(C`<resync>\*(C'\fR is exactly equivalent to the token
\&\f(CW\*(C`/[^\en]*\en/\*(C'\fR followed by the action \f(CW\*(C`{\ $return\ =\ 0\ }\*(C'\fR (except that
productions beginning with a \f(CW\*(C`<resync>\*(C'\fR are ignored when generating
error messages). A typical use might be:
.Sp
.Vb 1
\&        script : command(s)
\&
\&        command: save_command
\&               | restore_command
\&               | <resync> # TRY NEXT LINE, IF POSSIBLE
.Ve
.Sp
It is also possible to explicitly specify a resynchronization
pattern, using the \f(CW\*(C`<resync:\f(CIpattern\f(CW>\*(C'\fR variant. This version
succeeds only if the specified pattern matches (and consumes) the
parsed text. In other words, \f(CW\*(C`<resync:\f(CIpattern\f(CW>\*(C'\fR is exactly
equivalent to the token \f(CW\*(C`/\f(CIpattern\f(CW/\*(C'\fR (followed by a \f(CW\*(C`{\ $return\ =\ 0\ }\*(C'\fR
action). For example, if commands were terminated by newlines or semi-colons:
.Sp
.Vb 3
\&        command: save_command
\&               | restore_command
\&               | <resync:[^;\en]*[;\en]>
.Ve
.Sp
The value of a successfully matched \f(CW\*(C`<resync>\*(C'\fR directive (of either
type) is the text that it consumed. Note, however, that since the
directive also sets \f(CW$return\fR, a production consisting of a lone
\&\f(CW\*(C`<resync>\*(C'\fR succeeds but returns the value zero (which a calling rule
may find useful to distinguish between \*(L"true\*(R" matches and \*(L"tolerant\*(R" matches).
Remember that returning a zero value indicates that the rule \fIsucceeded\fR (since
only an \f(CW\*(C`undef\*(C'\fR denotes failure within \f(CW\*(C`Parse::RecDescent\*(C'\fR parsers.
.IP "Error handling" 4
.IX Item "Error handling"
The \f(CW\*(C`<error>\*(C'\fR directive provides automatic or user-defined
generation of error messages during a parse. In its simplest form
\&\f(CW\*(C`<error>\*(C'\fR prepares an error message based on
the mismatch between the last item expected and the text which cause
it to fail. For example, given the rule:
.Sp
.Vb 3
\&        McCoy: curse \*(Aq,\*(Aq name \*(Aq, I\*(Aqm a doctor, not a\*(Aq a_profession \*(Aq!\*(Aq
\&             | pronoun \*(Aqdead,\*(Aq name \*(Aq!\*(Aq
\&             | <error>
.Ve
.Sp
the following strings would produce the following messages:
.RS 4
.ie n .IP """Amen, Jim!""" 4
.el .IP "``Amen, Jim!''" 4
.IX Item "Amen, Jim!"
.Vb 2
\&       ERROR (line 1): Invalid McCoy: Expected curse or pronoun
\&                       not found
.Ve
.ie n .IP """Dammit, Jim, I'm a doctor!""" 4
.el .IP "``Dammit, Jim, I'm a doctor!''" 4
.IX Item "Dammit, Jim, I'm a doctor!"
.Vb 2
\&       ERROR (line 1): Invalid McCoy: Expected ", I\*(Aqm a doctor, not a"
\&                       but found ", I\*(Aqm a doctor!" instead
.Ve
.ie n .IP """He's dead,\en""" 4
.el .IP "``He's dead,\en''" 4
.IX Item "He's dead,n"
.Vb 1
\&       ERROR (line 2): Invalid McCoy: Expected name not found
.Ve
.ie n .IP """He's alive!""" 4
.el .IP "``He's alive!''" 4
.IX Item "He's alive!"
.Vb 2
\&       ERROR (line 1): Invalid McCoy: Expected \*(Aqdead,\*(Aq but found
\&                       "alive!" instead
.Ve
.ie n .IP """Dammit, Jim, I'm a doctor, not a pointy-eared Vulcan!""" 4
.el .IP "``Dammit, Jim, I'm a doctor, not a pointy-eared Vulcan!''" 4
.IX Item "Dammit, Jim, I'm a doctor, not a pointy-eared Vulcan!"
.Vb 2
\&       ERROR (line 1): Invalid McCoy: Expected a profession but found
\&                       "pointy\-eared Vulcan!" instead
.Ve
.RE
.RS 4
.Sp
Note that, when autogenerating error messages, all underscores in any
rule name used in a message are replaced by single spaces (for example
\&\*(L"a_production\*(R" becomes \*(L"a production\*(R"). Judicious choice of rule
names can therefore considerably improve the readability of automatic
error messages (as well as the maintainability of the original
grammar).
.Sp
If the automatically generated error is not sufficient, it is possible to
provide an explicit message as part of the error directive. For example:
.Sp
.Vb 3
\&        Spock: "Fascinating \*(Aq,\*(Aq (name | \*(AqCaptain\*(Aq) \*(Aq.\*(Aq
\&             | "Highly illogical, doctor."
\&             | <error: He never said that!>
.Ve
.Sp
which would result in \fIall\fR failures to parse a \*(L"Spock\*(R" subrule printing the
following message:
.Sp
.Vb 1
\&       ERROR (line <N>): Invalid Spock:  He never said that!
.Ve
.Sp
The error message is treated as a \*(L"qq{...}\*(R" string and interpolated
when the error is generated (\fInot\fR when the directive is specified!).
Hence:
.Sp
.Vb 1
\&        <error: Mystical error near "$text">
.Ve
.Sp
would correctly insert the ambient text string which caused the error.
.Sp
There are two other forms of error directive: \f(CW\*(C`<error?>\*(C'\fR and
\&\f(CW\*(C`<error?:\ msg>\*(C'\fR. These behave just like \f(CW\*(C`<error>\*(C'\fR
and \f(CW\*(C`<error:\ msg>\*(C'\fR respectively, except that they are
only triggered if the rule is \*(L"committed\*(R" at the time they are
encountered. For example:
.Sp
.Vb 3
\&        Scotty: "Ya kenna change the Laws of Phusics," <commit> name
\&              | name <commit> \*(Aq,\*(Aq \*(Aqshe\*(Aqs goanta blaw!\*(Aq
\&              | <error?>
.Ve
.Sp
will only generate an error for a string beginning with \*(L"Ya kenna
change the Laws o' Phusics,\*(R" or a valid name, but which still fails to match the
corresponding production. That is, \f(CW\*(C`$parser\->Scotty("Aye, Cap\*(Aqain")\*(C'\fR will
fail silently (since neither production will \*(L"commit\*(R" the rule on that
input), whereas \f(CW\*(C`$parser\->Scotty("Mr\ Spock,\ ah\ jest\ kenna\ do\*(Aqut!")\*(C'\fR
will fail with the error message:
.Sp
.Vb 2
\&       ERROR (line 1): Invalid Scotty: expected \*(Aqshe\*(Aqs goanta blaw!\*(Aq
\&                       but found \*(AqI jest kenna do\*(Aqut!\*(Aq instead.
.Ve
.Sp
since in that case the second production would commit after matching
the leading name.
.Sp
Note that to allow this behaviour, all \f(CW\*(C`<error>\*(C'\fR directives which are
the first item in a production automatically uncommit the rule just
long enough to allow their production to be attempted (that is, when
their production fails, the commitment is reinstated so that
subsequent productions are skipped).
.Sp
In order to \fIpermanently\fR uncommit the rule before an error message,
it is necessary to put an explicit \f(CW\*(C`<uncommit>\*(C'\fR before the
\&\f(CW\*(C`<error>\*(C'\fR. For example:
.Sp
.Vb 5
\&        line: \*(AqKirk:\*(Aq  <commit> Kirk
\&            | \*(AqSpock:\*(Aq <commit> Spock
\&            | \*(AqMcCoy:\*(Aq <commit> McCoy
\&            | <uncommit> <error?> <reject>
\&            | <resync>
.Ve
.Sp
Error messages generated by the various \f(CW\*(C`<error...>\*(C'\fR directives
are not displayed immediately. Instead, they are \*(L"queued\*(R" in a buffer and
are only displayed once parsing ultimately fails. Moreover,
\&\f(CW\*(C`<error...>\*(C'\fR directives that cause one production of a rule
to fail are automatically removed from the message queue
if another production subsequently causes the entire rule to succeed.
This means that you can put 
\&\f(CW\*(C`<error...>\*(C'\fR directives wherever useful diagnosis can be done,
and only those associated with actual parser failure will ever be
displayed. Also see \*(L"Gotchas\*(R".
.Sp
As a general rule, the most useful diagnostics are usually generated
either at the very lowest level within the grammar, or at the very
highest. A good rule of thumb is to identify those subrules which
consist mainly (or entirely) of terminals, and then put an
\&\f(CW\*(C`<error...>\*(C'\fR directive at the end of any other rule which calls
one or more of those subrules.
.Sp
There is one other situation in which the output of the various types of
error directive is suppressed; namely, when the rule containing them
is being parsed as part of a \*(L"look-ahead\*(R" (see \*(L"Look-ahead\*(R"). In this
case, the error directive will still cause the rule to fail, but will do
so silently.
.Sp
An unconditional \f(CW\*(C`<error>\*(C'\fR directive always fails (and hence has no
associated value). This means that encountering such a directive
always causes the production containing it to fail. Hence an
\&\f(CW\*(C`<error>\*(C'\fR directive will inevitably be the last (useful) item of a
rule (a level 3 warning is issued if a production contains items after an unconditional
\&\f(CW\*(C`<error>\*(C'\fR directive).
.Sp
An \f(CW\*(C`<error?>\*(C'\fR directive will \fIsucceed\fR (that is: fail to fail :\-), if
the current rule is uncommitted when the directive is encountered. In
that case the directive's associated value is zero. Hence, this type
of error directive \fIcan\fR be used before the end of a
production. For example:
.Sp
.Vb 3
\&        command: \*(Aqdo\*(Aq <commit> something
\&               | \*(Aqreport\*(Aq <commit> something
\&               | <error?: Syntax error> <error: Unknown command>
.Ve
.Sp
\&\fBWarning:\fR The \f(CW\*(C`<error?>\*(C'\fR directive does \fInot\fR mean \*(L"always fail (but
do so silently unless committed)\*(R". It actually means "only fail (and report) if
committed, otherwise \fIsucceed\fR\*(L". To achieve the \*(R"fail silently if uncommitted"
semantics, it is necessary to use:
.Sp
.Vb 2
\&        rule: item <commit> item(s)
\&            | <error?> <reject>      # FAIL SILENTLY UNLESS COMMITTED
.Ve
.Sp
However, because people seem to expect a lone \f(CW\*(C`<error?>\*(C'\fR directive
to work like this:
.Sp
.Vb 3
\&        rule: item <commit> item(s)
\&            | <error?: Error message if committed>
\&            | <error:  Error message if uncommitted>
.Ve
.Sp
Parse::RecDescent automatically appends a 
\&\f(CW\*(C`<reject>\*(C'\fR directive if the \f(CW\*(C`<error?>\*(C'\fR directive
is the only item in a production. A level 2 warning (see below)
is issued when this happens.
.Sp
The level of error reporting during both parser construction and
parsing is controlled by the presence or absence of four global
variables: \f(CW$::RD_ERRORS\fR, \f(CW$::RD_WARN\fR, \f(CW$::RD_HINT\fR, and
<$::RD_TRACE>. If \f(CW$::RD_ERRORS\fR is defined (and, by default, it is)
then fatal errors are reported.
.Sp
Whenever \f(CW$::RD_WARN\fR is defined, certain non-fatal problems are also reported. 
Warnings have an associated \*(L"level\*(R": 1, 2, or 3. The higher the level,
the more serious the warning. The value of the corresponding global
variable (\f(CW$::RD_WARN\fR) determines the \fIlowest\fR level of warning to
be displayed. Hence, to see \fIall\fR warnings, set \f(CW$::RD_WARN\fR to 1.
To see only the most serious warnings set \f(CW$::RD_WARN\fR to 3.
By default \f(CW$::RD_WARN\fR is initialized to
