TaskPaper (BNF) Grammar

Sorry I don’t have a BNF. The best I have is the parser code link from here:

And in particular the parsing process for TaskPaper formatted text starts with deserializeItems here:

              # to
              removedLength = 0
              parseTags body, (tag, value, match) ->
                item.setAttribute(tag, value)
                index = match.index - removedLength
                body = body.substring(0, index) + body.substring(index + match[0].length)
                removedLength += match[0].length
          
            item
          
          deserializeItems = (itemsString, outline, options={}) ->
            text.deserializeItems(itemsString, outline, options, deserializeItem)
          
          module.exports =
            changeDelegate: require './change-delegate'
            beginSerialization: text.beginSerialization
            beginSerializeItem: text.beginSerializeItem
            serializeItemBody: serializeItemBody
            endSerializeItem: text.endSerializeItem
            endSerialization: text.endSerialization
            emptyEncodeLastItem: text.emptyEncodeLastItem
