# This package takes text in JSON format (Java Script data transfer
# format) and produces the canonical serialization of a parsing
# expression grammar.

## API.

    # do for Tcl-based canonical PEG serializations, because our
    # underlying JSON parser automatically merges them, by taking only
    # the last found definition. I.e. of two or more definitions for
    # some key X the last overwrites all previous occurences.
