+(*
+  The syntax of Extended BNF can be defined using itself. There are four
+  parts in this example, the first part names the characters, the second
+  part defines the removal of unnecessary non- printing characters, the
+  third part defines the removal of textual comments, and the final part
+  defines the structure of Extended BNF itself.
+
+  Each syntax rule in this example starts with a comment that identifies
+  the corresponding clause in the standard.
+
+  The meaning of special-sequences is not defined in the standard. In
+  this example (see the reference to 7.6) they represent control
+  functions defined by ISO/IEC 6429:1992. Another special-sequence
+  defines a syntactic-exception (see the reference to 4.7).
+*)
+
+(*
+  The first part of the lexical syntax defines the characters in the
+  7-bit character set (ISO/IEC 646:1991) that represent each
+  terminal-character and gap-separator in Extended BNF.
