        **Paxter** is a document-first, text pre-processing mini-language toolchain,
        _loosely_ inspired by [@-expressions in Racket](https://docs.racket-lang.org/scribble/reader.html).
        
        -   The Paxter library package defines the syntax for **Paxter language**
            and provides a toolchain for parsing input texts
            written in Paxter language into _an intermediate parsed tree_.
        -   However, the semantics of Paxter language is left unspecified,
            meaning that users of the library have all the freedom to do
            whatever they like to render or transform the intermediate parsed tree
            into a final output they wish to achieve.  
        -   Alternatively, instead of implementing an interpreter 
            for intermediate parsed tree by themselves,
            users may opt-in to utilize a preset _parsed tree renderers_,
            also provided by this library package.
        
        
        ## Example
        
        Suppose that we have a text document written in Paxter language as shown below.
        
        ```text
        @python##"
            import statistics
            from datetime import datetime
        
            _symbols_ = {
                '@': '@',
                '.': '&hairsp;',
                ',': '&thinsp;',
            }
            name = "Ashley"
            birth_year = 1987
            age = datetime.now().year - birth_year
        "##\
        My name is @name and I am @age years old.
        My email is ashley@@example.com.
        My shop opens Monday@,-@,Friday.
        
        @python##"
            from itertools import count
            counter = count(start=1)
        "##\
        Counting is as easy as @|next(counter)|, @|next(counter)|, @|next(counter)|.
        Arithmetic? Not a problem: 7 * 11 * 13 = @|7 * 11 * 13|.
        
        @python##"
            def tag(text, name='span'):
                return f'<{name}>{flatten(text)}</{name}>'
        "##\
        This is a very @tag["b"]{important @tag["i"]{feature}}:
        @@-expressions are allowed to be nested within the main argument
        using fragment list syntax (section surrounded by a pair of curly braces).
        
        To escape right curly braces literal characters with the fragment list main argument,
        simply enclose the main argument with as many #...# as you like
        (@tag##{such as {this}!}##).
        
        @python##"
            def is_odd(value):
                return value % 2 == 1
        "##\
        Odd digits are@flatten{@for[i in @|range(10)|]{@if[@|is_odd(i)|]{ @i}}}.
        Expected outcome for rolling a die is @|statistics.mean|[@|range(1, 7)|].
        ```
        
        Using the parser in Paxter library package to process this document,
        we obtain the following result.

        If we are using the Python authoring mode
        (a renderer extension provided by Paxter library package)
        to process the intermediate parsed tree result from above,
        then the following output result would be returned.
        
        ```text

        Counting is as easy as 1, 2, 3.
        Arithmetic? Not a problem: 7 * 11 * 13 = 1001.
        
        This is a very <b>important <i>feature</i></b>:
        @-expressions are allowed to be nested within the main argument
        using fragment list syntax (section surrounded by a pair of curly braces).
        
        To escape right curly braces literal characters with the fragment list main argument,
        simply enclose the main argument with as many #...# as you like
        (<span>such as {this}!</span>).
        
        Odd digits are 1 3 5 7 9.
        Expected outcome for rolling a die is 3.5.

        ## Future Plans
        
        -   Experiment with different kinds of transformers and use it in real life
        -   Re-implementing lexers and parsers in Rust for better performance
            and portability to other environments (such as WASM). 
        -   And more!
        
        
        ## Development
        
        `Makefile` contains a lot of utility scripts.  
        See help command by simply running `make` or `make help`.
