+This is a first attempt to document the grammar used by magic(5), with
+hopes of eventually incorporating something like this into the manpage.
+
+Note: Currently, the parser varies slightly from this, but only in
+very minor ways, e.g., the strflags maybe separated by '/' characters
+and at most one strcount is allowed; likewise for regflags.
