Introduction
============
The pyparsing module is an alternative approach to creating and
executing simple grammars, vs. the traditional lex/yacc approach, or the
use of regular expressions. The pyparsing module provides a library of
classes that client code uses to construct the grammar directly in
Python code.
*[Since first writing this description of pyparsing in late 2003, this
technique for developing parsers has become more widespread, under the
name Parsing Expression Grammars - PEGs. See more information on PEGs*

Here is a program to parse ``"Hello, World!"`` (or any greeting of the form
``"salutation, addressee!"``):
