DESCRIPTION

This module parses a terminfo database and produces an AST from it. If you want to enable logging, be aware that this module is a Log::Any thingy.

The grammar is a slightly revisited version of the one found at http://nixdoc.net/man-pages/HP-UX/man4/terminfo.4.html#Formal%20Grammar, taking into account ncurses compatibility.

SUBROUTINES/METHODS

new($class)

Instantiate a new object. Takes no parameter.

parse($self, $bufferp)

Parses a terminfo database. Takes a pointer to a string as parameter.

Returns Marpa value on the parse tree. Ambiguous parse tree result is disabled and the module will croak if this happen.
