Ebel (ebe language)

Ebe internal language (ebel) is the language to which ebe compiles and which it can run.

Simply said ebel is a set of instruction in a pipeline which modify input text. These pipelines are created for different passes through the input.

Ebel is case insensitive (NOP can be written as nop or NoP or any combination).

Ebel instruction set

Arguments in this case means additional instruction argument such as offset, not the actual object (word/line/document) which will be passed to the instruction

Instruction	Name	Definition	Arguments	Pass
NOP	No operation	No operation is done over argument		All
DEL	Delete	Delete object		All
SWAP #ofst	Swap	Swaps current object with an object of specified offset	Positive offset	Words, Lines
CONCAT #ofst	Concatenate	Concatenates current line with a line at specified offset	Positive offset	Lines
PASS name	Set parsing	Sets which pass to switch to	words/lines/documents	All (control)
LOOP	Loop pass	Loop above instructions until end of input is reached. Instructions after the loop will be executed and after reaching the end of the pass the loop will execute. LOOP nesting is not supported, last LOOP will be used.		All
