Sorry, I do not see any definition here. Just a collection of words which looks like a definition, but only locally… And I think I can even invent an example which I cannot parse using your definition: 1( 2[ 3( 4] 5) 6) Is looking-at-1 forcing match of 3-and-5? Or what? Thanks, Ilya _______________________________________________ Unicode mailing list [email protected] http://unicode.org/mailman/listinfo/unicode
