Logical lines
-------------

The end of a logical line is represented by the token NEWLINE.
Statements cannot cross logical line boundaries except where NEWLINE is
allowed by the syntax (e.g., between statements in compound statements).
A logical line is constructed from one or more _physical lines_ by
following the explicit or implicit _line joining_ rules.
