1 //! Functions to parse s-expressions and expression atoms.
2 //!
3 //! This module contains the core parsing machinery.
4 //!
5 //! * If you're interested in getting a parsed s-expression that you can use,
6 //! then looking at [`parse`] and [`parse_one`] are your best bet.
7 //! * If you want to write your own parsers that contain s-expressions,
8 //! [`ParseResult`] and [`parse_expression`] will be the most useful to you.
9 //!
10 //! [`parse`]: fn.parse.html
11 //! [`parse_one`]: fn.parse_one.html
