justfile grammar
================
Justfiles are processed by a mildly context-sensitive tokenizer
and a recursive descent parser. The grammar is LL(k), for an
unknown but hopefully reasonable value of k.
tokens
------
```
BACKTICK = `[^`]*`
INDENTED_BACKTICK = ```[^(```)]*```
COMMENT = #([^!].*)?$
DEDENT = emitted when indentation decreases
EOF = emitted at the end of the file
INDENT = emitted when indentation increases
LINE = emitted before a recipe line
NAME = [a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z0-9_-]*
NEWLINE = \n|\r\n
RAW_STRING = '[^']*'
INDENTED_RAW_STRING = '''[^(''')]*'''
STRING = "[^"]*" # also processes \n \r \t \" \\ escapes
INDENTED_STRING = """[^(""")]*""" # also processes \n \r \t \" \\ escapes
LINE_PREFIX = @-|-@|@|-
TEXT = recipe text, only matches in a recipe body
```
grammar syntax
--------------
```

() grouping
_? option (0 or 1 times)
