    (synopsis "Parser generators for Parsing Expression Grammars (PEGs)")
    (description "peg and leg are tools for generating recursive-descent
parsers: programs that perform pattern matching on text.  They processes a
Parsing Expression Grammar (PEG) [Ford 2004] to produce a program that
recognises legal sentences of that grammar.  peg processes PEGs written using
the original syntax described by Ford; leg processes PEGs written using
slightly different syntax and conventions that are intended to make it an
attractive replacement for parsers built with lex and yacc.  Unlike lex and
yacc, peg and leg support unlimited backtracking, provide ordered choice as a
means for disambiguation, and can combine scanning (lexical analysis) and
parsing (syntactic analysis) into a single activity.")
