Re: [PATCH olang v3] docs: create o programming language spec

[Carlos Maniero]

Nice work! I tested and everything seems to be good.

Except a weird spacing in the code that is coming from nowhere when
the HTML is generated, but since it is unrelated with your change we are
good to go.

I'm changing the patch status to approved since I can't trigger
pipelines during the git pushes.

[PATCH olang v3] docs: create o programming language spec

[Johnny Richard]

This document specifies the semantics and behavior of the O Programming
Language for compiler designers be informed on how the language is designed.

This document will help newcomers to understand how the language looks
like and also as a DRAFT guide to drive design discussions.

The grammar was made by using a EBNF evaluator tool[1].

[1]: The live example https://mdkrajnak.github.io/ebnftest/ and a locked
     version https://github.com/Engelberg/instaparse/tree/v1.4.12 as
     reference.

V3: 
  - fix markdown reference link
  - add Pandoc metadata to fix page header
  - add spec link to layout header
  - fix page max-width to avoid EBNF of wrapping lines on big screens

+
+This specification is a DRAFT and will be the discussions drive over olang-dev

+Language Syntax
+---------------
+
+This is the O Programming Language EBNF grammar specification[^1]

+NOTE: This grammar spec is a DRAFT and it covers only a small portion of the
+language.
