1//! The Expression Constraint Language.
2//!
3//! A `logos` lexer and a `winnow` parser faithful to the official ECL ANTLR
4//! grammar (`vendor/syntax/ECL.g4`, the pinned tag in `docs/VERSIONS.md`;
5//! <https://docs.snomed.org/snomed-ct-specifications/snomed-ct-expression-constraint-language>),
6//! a syntax tree named after the grammar's rules, and a printer whose output
7//! parses back to the same tree.
