Re: SMIE examples or guides

[Björn Lindqvist]

Many thanks! That appears to work. But there is one problem. In a
buffer with just this content:

    [
    \
    ]

I get the error: (error "Bumped into unknown token")

And another problem I'm having is trying to support multiple
indentation start tokens:

    (deconst factor-smie-grammar
     (smie-prec2->grammar
      (smie-bnf->prec2
       '((exp (("HELLO" "HALLO" "CIAO" "SALUT") exp "BYE"))))))

My intent is to allow either of those four words to be used to start
the indented block. I only need one ending token so there will be no
alternative to BYE. Seems like it should be trivial to extend the BNF
grammar in this way, but I can't figure out what syntax
smie-bnf->prec2 expects for it.
