[lojban] SA errors in camxes
I've begun testing SA handling in camxes, and it doesn't match Magic
Words[1], not by a lot. I'm wondering if I'm seeing a change of
*intention* with regard to handling SA.
Simple cases work:
mi sa do ponse => do ponse
mi ponse sa do => do
.i broda sa brode => .i brode
.i broda sa .i brode => .i brode
; I'm particularly happy this one works
;
broda ba'e mi sa ba'e do => broda ba'e do
But even moderately complex ones don't:
mi ponse lo grana sa do => mi ponse do (I expect |do|)
mi zoi .gy. foo .gy. sa do => mi do (I expect |do|)
mi zoi .gy. sa do => mi (I expect: |parse error|, or |do|)
broda lo brode sa .i brodi => broda lo brode (I expect |brodi|)
Not to mention pathological cases:
mi lo sa do => mi do (I expect |parse error| or |do|)
mi lo lo lo lo lo sa do => mi (I expect |parse error| or |do|)
My questions:
* Are the cases I point about above errors in camxes? Is "Magic
Words" the most authoritative description of SA or did that
change and camxes is doing something it should be?
* do the words |...| in |selma'o ... si selma'o| need to be
grammatical by themselves? Or just lojbanic words? What about
non-lojbanic words?
These examples are all sort of uniform, I haven't put together a
rigorous test suite yet.
