class ChunkString:
"""
A string-based encoding of a particular chunking of a text.
Internally, the ``ChunkString`` class uses a single string to
encode the chunking of the input text. This string contains a
sequence of angle-bracket delimited tags, with chunking indicated
by braces. An example of this encoding is::
{<DT><JJ><NN>}<VBN><IN>{<DT><NN>}<.>{<DT><NN>}<VBD><.>
``ChunkString`` are created from tagged texts (i.e., lists of
``tokens`` whose type is ``TaggedType``). Initially, nothing is
chunked.
The chunking of a ``ChunkString`` can be modified with the ``xform()``
method, which uses a regular expression to transform the string
representation. These transformations should only add and remove
braces; they should *not* modify the sequence of angle-bracket
delimited tags.

``RegexpChunkRule`` class itself can be used to implement any
transformational rule based on regular expressions. There are
also a number of subclasses, which can be used to implement
simpler types of rules, based on matching regular expressions.

replacement expression. When a ``RegexpChunkRule`` is "applied"
to a ``ChunkString``, it searches the ``ChunkString`` for any
substring that matches the regular expression, and replaces it
using the replacement expression. This search/replace operation
has the same semantics as ``re.sub``.
Each ``RegexpChunkRule`` also has a description string, which
gives a short (typically less than 75 characters) description of
the purpose of the rule.

Convert a tag pattern to a regular expression pattern. A "tag
pattern" is a modified version of a regular expression, designed
for matching sequences of tags. The differences between regular
expression patterns and tag patterns are:
- In tag patterns, ``'<'`` and ``'>'`` act as parentheses; so
``'<NN>+'`` matches one or more repetitions of ``'<NN>'``, not
``'<NN'`` followed by one or more repetitions of ``'>'``.
- Whitespace in tag patterns is ignored. So
``'<DT> | <NN>'`` is equivalent to ``'<DT>|<NN>'``
- In tag patterns, ``'.'`` is equivalent to ``'[^{}<>]'``; so
``'<NN.*>'`` matches any single tag starting with ``'NN'``.
In particular, ``tag_pattern2re_pattern`` performs the following
transformations on the given pattern:
- Replace '.' with '[^<>{}]'
- Remove any whitespace
- Add extra parens around '<' and '>', to make '<' and '>' act
like parentheses. E.g., so that in '<NN>+', the '+' has scope
over the entire '<NN>'; and so that in '<NN|IN>', the '|' has
scope over 'NN' and 'IN', but not '<' or '>'.
- Check to make sure the resulting pattern is valid.

class RegexpParser(ChunkParserI):
r"""
A grammar based chunk parser. ``chunk.RegexpParser`` uses a set of
regular expression patterns to specify the behavior of the parser.
The chunking of the text is encoded using a ``ChunkString``, and
each rule acts by modifying the chunking in the ``ChunkString``.
The rules are all implemented using regular expression matching
and substitution.
A grammar contains one or more clauses in the following form::
NP:
{<DT|JJ>} # chunk determiners and adjectives
}<[\.VI].*>+{ # strip any tag beginning with V, I, or .
<.*>}{<DT> # split a chunk at a determiner
<DT|JJ>{}<NN.*> # merge chunk ending with det/adj
# with one starting with a noun
The patterns of a clause are executed in order. An earlier
pattern may introduce a chunk boundary that prevents a later
pattern from executing. Sometimes an individual pattern will
match on multiple, overlapping extents of the input. As with
regular expression substitution more generally, the chunker will
identify the first match possible, then continue looking for matches
after this one has ended.
The clauses of a grammar are also executed in order. A cascaded
chunk parser is one having more than one clause. The maximum depth
of a parse tree created by this chunk parser is the same as the
number of clauses in the grammar.
When tracing is turned on, the comment portion of a line is displayed
each time the corresponding pattern is applied.
