Message Parsing Interpreter - Command Structure

Command Structure

MPI could be viewed as a form of markup language as instructions are encapsulated within bracket marks to differentiate them from regular text. The MPI command is specified first, followed by a colon, and then command arguments, separated by commas. If one of the arguments is a string that contains a comma, it is escaped by using a backslash or the {lit:} (for literal) command.

{ command : argument1, argument2 }

Commands can be nested, taking the place of one or more arguments within the parent command to form more complex code:

{tell: {name:me} just looked at {name:this}., {owner:this}}

Famous quotes containing the words command and/or structure:

    I, who should command a regiment,
    Do amble amiably here, O God,
    One of the neat ones in your awkward squad.
    Norman Cameron (b. 1905)

    When a house is tottering to its fall,
    The strain lies heaviest on the weakest part,
    One tiny crack throughout the structure spreads,
    And its own weight soon brings it toppling down.
    Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)
