By a "text" I mean the amount of speech given to the parser for
parsing in one chunk. In a conversation a new text is started every
time the speaker changes. Often two texts won't parse if they are
simply concatenated into one. In #jbosnu each line constitutes a new
text because it is parsed independently of the rest. (I call that
unit "text" because that's what the official formal grammar calls it.)
