Package formal-grammar

This package provides an easy way to write formal grammars.

To use it, run the following commands:

$ latex formal-grammar.ins
$ pdflatex formal-grammar.dtx

The first command generates the file formal-grammar.sty that should be placed in the same folder than your main document. The second command generates the file formal-grammar.pdf (you may require multiple runs to adjust internal references), which is the documentation for the package.
