Re: [lojban] Yet another PEG question ...

[Frank <frankdmartinez@gmail.com>]

I also see "innerWordSEP2" and "innerWordSEP3" in the grammar file and
not in the morphology one but do not seem to be able to find a
definition. What are these terms, if Anyone remembers? (I know how
easy it can be to code something and then forget why One did that.)
