This approach must be deepened. Let us define "text" as the semantic data
structure that results from parsing strings. Imagine that a software system has
a "text engine" at its kernel. When you edit a run control file and save it,
- the text engine parses it and stores its parse tree into the central
- repository. When you execute an instruction at the shell, the text engine
- parses the command line and sets all parameters in the repository before
- executing the command. An application retrieves a configuration parameter by
- querying the text engine. In such a system parsers for particular formats or
- languages would not be embedded into particular applications or commands,
- they would be stand-alone software units with the sole purpose of converting
- a string into a semantic representation in the text engine's repository.
- Applications would not have to deal with and not be tied to particular file
- formats and languages, and the user would be able to choose the format or
- language to use for any configuration statement. The user would change the
- name of a file and would not need to adjust all references to it inside
- scripts and other files, because the reference in the repository (say as
- inode) would remain unchanged. To experiment with this new
