  Description     : library to draw railroad syntax diagrams

 This is a small library for generating railroad diagrams (like what
 JSON.org uses) using SVG or Unicode Text, with both JS and Python ports.
 .
 Railroad diagrams are a way of visually representing a grammar in a form
 that is more readable than using regular expressions or BNF. They can
 easily represent any context-free grammar, and some more powerful
 grammars. There are several railroad-diagram generators out there, but
 none of them had the desired visual appeal, so this project was born.

dep for nearley
i plan to maintain this under the js-team
