There are multiple subtle errors in the previous version, both in the codes and in the description of the BNF format. This version should fix some problems now. This version can successfully parse the grammar of its own grammar format, which is quite nice. See test/check_reader.c for parsing this format.
2022-01-31test/check_cnp: working algorithmJSDurand
I now have a working algorithm in test/check_cnp. It can correctly parse the grammar for an esoteric language called "Brainfuck". This language does not matter. What matters is that it contains parentheses. So this shows that at least for grammars as complex as parentheses, this parser works well. Haha.

Now some problems are fixed. It can now read grammar correctly (hopefully) from a file, in the BNF format. And strings (terminals) are handled fine as well. So glad that there are no leak problems now.

Now we can read grammars from a file. But we need to check if it works for reading strings still.
2021-11-09save point: representation of grammar might be too rough.JSDurand
The current representation of the grammar is the most primitive BNF. This is the simplest to implement, but is difficult to cope with user requirements. Moreover, I find another paper describing the GLR algorithm, so I need to think about the representation of the grammar more. In particular, I would like the generation of the grammar to be incremental, so per chance its data type should be adapted accordingly.
