\textbf{Conventions}\\
Syntax specifications are set using \texttt{this monotype font}. Square brackets
([ ]) enclose optional parts. Terms beginning with an uppercase letter like
\textit{Integer} shall then be replaced by some suitable value. Terms beginning
with a lowercase letter like \texttt{end} are reserved words in Erlang. A
vertical bar (\textbar{}) separates alternatives, like Integer \textbar{} Float.
