FSinfo grammar
==============

   FSinfo has a relatively simple grammar.  Distinct syntactic
constructs exist for each of the different types of data, though they
share a common flavor.  Several conventions are used in the grammar
fragments below.

   The notation, list(xxx), indicates a list of zero or more xxx's.
The notation, opt(xxx), indicates zero or one xxx.  Items in double
quotes, eg "host", represent input tokens.  Items in angle brackets, eg
<HOSTNAME>, represent strings in the input.  Strings need not be in
double quotes, except to differentiate them from reserved words.
Quoted strings may include the usual set of C "\" escape sequences with
one exception: a backslash-newline-whitespace sequence is squashed into
a single space character.  To defeat this feature, put a further
backslash at the start of the second line.

   At the outermost level of the grammar, the input consists of a
sequence of host and automount declarations.  These declarations are
all parsed before they are analyzed.  This means they can appear in any
order and cyclic host references are possible.

     fsinfo      : list(fsinfo_attr) ;
     
     fsinfo_attr : host | automount ;
