| + | LINES => LINE '\n' LINES | e | ||
| + | LINE => WORD | WORD WS ARG_LIST | e | ||
| + | ARG_LIST => ARG WS ARG_LIST | e | ||
| + | ARG => WORD | ||

| + | Syntax for if-else branches: | ||
| + | if <condition> | ||

| + | [ else | ||
| + | <statements> ] | ||
| + | fi | ||
| + | |||
| + | Proposed syntax for while loops: | ||
| + | while <condition> | ||
| + | do | ||
| + | <statements> | ||
| + | done | ||
| + | |||
| + | Proposed syntax for for loops: | ||
| + | for <variable> in <value list> | ||
| + | do | ||
| + | <statements> | ||
| + | done | ||
| + | Pretty similar to the shell syntax, so it should be familiar. | ||
