GallifreyanParser

[erroronline1]

ModisR's idea of a universal parser for all scribes. if i am not mistaken these are common rules:

• scribes that know stacking, limit this to have vowels as a last character
• maximum stacking could be set to 1 by default for all scribes that do not know stacking
• every module could have a character- and rules sheet added to the setup.js-file (has to be implemented for a few in advance)

however i do not know how to adress following differences by myself:

• gc splits sentence constructs by all punctuation, even comma, as opposed to e.g. shermans
• gs is in need of punctuation and adds it by default
• other styles do not support punctuation
• cot can stack cv and ccv. a maximum stacking of 3 could lead to cvv and according to the guide this is not intended
• shermans has numbers with decimal separators and control characters to distinguish between numbers and punctuation
• clockwork uses control characters for double characters as intended by the guide
• some scribes add aleph to vowels, others don't

if anyone comes up with a clever solution of universal appliance that does not include a bunch of if-queries for every scribe that'd be great. otherwise the current module-specific input parsing seems to make more sense imho.

OK, so, to be clear, my choice of phrase "universal parser" is a bit of a simplification. What I really have in mind is we classify all the languages into a taxonomy and draw up a tree diagram to represent this structure. That structure will inform us what the Gallifreyan parser class inheritance tree should look like.

i thought i got that 😅. still can't figure out a scheme that describes each scribes splitting- and grouping-pattern and can be passed to the parser to be regularly processed. i'd be delighted to see a solution!
