Hi all,

I'm playing around with PEG's a bit at the moment. In the examples, I can 
see '<>' characters surrounding a symbol definition a few times. In the peg 
sources I found it to be related to "yyStart", which indicates to me that it 
might point out the start symbol for example?

Oddly, though, it doesn't seem to matter at all whether (and where) this start 
symbol is located in the grammar, so I'm guessing my initial guess was 
wrong...

Should I mind these <> brackets at all?

On a different note: I read somewhere that PEG's aren't able to use 
left-recursive parsing rules. Yet at first sight the code generator doesn't 
seem to complain when I write a few...

Are Jolt PEG's more powerful than usual, or will I run into trouble later on?

Thanks,

Hans
