| 10 | DESCRIPTION tmg\b\b\b___ | |
| 11 | produces a translator for the language whose parsing | |
| 12 | and translation rules are described in file name.t\b\b__. | |
| 13 | The new translator appears | |
| 14 | in a.out and may be used thus: | |
| 15 | .ce | |
| 16 | .sp | |
| 17 | a.out\b\b\b\b\b_____ input [ output ] | |
| 18 | .sp | |
| 19 | Except in rare cases input must be a randomly | |
| 20 | addressable file. | |
| 21 | If no output file is specified, the standard output file | |
| 22 | is assumed. | |

| 36 | DIAGNOSTICS Syntactic errors result in "???" followed by the | |
| 37 | offending line. | |
| 38 | .br | |
| 39 | Situations such as space overflow | |
| 40 | with which the Tmg processor or a Tmg-produced | |
| 41 | processor can not cope result in a descriptive comment and | |
| 42 | a dump. | |

| 47 | Restrictions (7.) against mixing bundling primitives | |
| 48 | should be lifted. | |
