### The Pep/Nom documents folder This folder contains documentation about the *Nom* interpreted and compilable language and the *Pep* Pattern Engine for parsing. *Nom* is a language with a syntax similar to "sed" https://www.gnu.org/software/sed/manual/sed.html but hopefully less cryptic than *sed* . Whereas *sed* matches and replaces "regular expression" wp://regular.expression patterns, *nom* recognises and transforms, translates or compiles context-free patterns or languages. The folder file:///doc/commands/ contains information about each command in the nom language such as the nom://add command, the nom://push command and so on. The "command index" file:///doc/commands/doc.dir.index.html contains a list of commands and links to their documentation The folder file:///doc/syntax/ contains information about the syntax of the *nom* language, as it is defined in the nom compiler nomsf://compile.pss . The page file:///doc/syntax/doc.dir.index.html has a list of files in the syntax documentation. The folder file:///doc/machine/ contains documentation about the *pep* "virtual machine" pep://machine and each of its parts such as the pep://stack , the pep://tape and the pep://workspace buffer among others There is a booklet about the Pep&Nom system in plain text file://pepnom-book.txt and html nomsf://pars-book.html but the documents here are more up-to-date.
