Subject: stds-1450.4: Syntax

Working group,

Don Organ and i have been discussing 1450.4 syntax and semantics for a
while now but not much of what we discussed has made it into the
official document.  I note that people are chomping at the bit to start
coding use cases and so i've recorded an updated version and am
submitting what i have so far in the form of four attached ASCII files:
ExampleCode.asc, Defaults.asc, Syntax.asc, and Keywords.asc.

What is new are defaults, relationships which enable more code reuse,
and some language features i needed to be able to write meaningful
Use-Case code.  The syntax remains true to Jim O'Reilly's diagram and
the inheritance structure i had proposed.  For the most part, this is a
superset of the official document although there are some unavoidable
differences.

ExampleCode.asc contains the beginnings of Dave Dowding's Use Case #1
and Jim Moseley's Use Case which i've arbitrarily numbered 3 (i made it
through InitFlowGroup).
