  \item \hyperlink{command.typ}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{typ}}}}~\isa{{\isasymtau}} reads and prints types of the

  meta-logic according to the current theory or proof context.

  \item \hyperlink{command.term}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{term}}}}~\isa{t} and \hyperlink{command.prop}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{prop}}}}~\isa{{\isasymphi}}

  read, type-check and print terms or propositions according to the

  current theory or proof context; the inferred type of \isa{t} is

  output as well.  Note that these commands are also useful in

  inspecting the current environment of term abbreviations.

  \item \hyperlink{command.thm}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{thm}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}a\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ a\isactrlsub n{\isachardoublequote}} retrieves

  theorems from the current theory or proof context.  Note that any

  attributes included in the theorem specifications are applied to a

  temporary context derived from the current theory or proof; the

  result is discarded, i.e.\ attributes involved in \isa{{\isachardoublequote}a\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}{\isacharcomma}\ {\isasymdots}{\isacharcomma}\ a\isactrlsub n{\isachardoublequote}} do not have any permanent effect.

  \item \hyperlink{command.prf}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{prf}}}} displays the (compact) proof term of the

  current proof state (if present), or of the given theorems. Note

  that this requires proof terms to be switched on for the current

  object logic (see the ``Proof terms'' section of the Isabelle

  reference manual for information on how to do this).

  \item \hyperlink{command.full-prf}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{full{\isacharunderscore}prf}}}} is like \hyperlink{command.prf}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{prf}}}}, but displays

  the full proof term, i.e.\ also displays information omitted in the

  compact proof term, which is denoted by ``\isa{{\isacharunderscore}}'' placeholders

  there.

  \item \hyperlink{command.pr}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{pr}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}goals{\isacharcomma}\ prems{\isachardoublequote}} prints the current

  proof state (if present), including the proof context, current facts

  and goals.  The optional limit arguments affect the number of goals

  and premises to be displayed, which is initially 10 for both.

  Omitting limit values leaves the current setting unchanged.

  \end{description}

  All of the diagnostic commands above admit a list of \isa{modes}

  to be specified, which is appended to the current print mode (see

  also \cite{isabelle-ref}).  Thus the output behavior may be modified

  according particular print mode features.  For example, \hyperlink{command.pr}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{pr}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}latex\ xsymbols{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}} would print the current proof state

  with mathematical symbols and special characters represented in

  {\LaTeX} source, according to the Isabelle style

  \cite{isabelle-sys}.

  Note that antiquotations (cf.\ \secref{sec:antiq}) provide a more

  systematic way to include formal items into the printed text

  document.%

  These global ML variables control the detail of information that is

  displayed for types, terms, theorems, goals etc.

  In interactive sessions, the user interface usually manages these

  global parameters of the Isabelle process, even with some concept of

  persistence.  Nonetheless it is occasionally useful to manipulate ML

  variables directly, e.g.\ using \hyperlink{command.ML-val}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{ML{\isacharunderscore}val}}}} or \hyperlink{command.ML-command}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{ML{\isacharunderscore}command}}}}.

  Batch-mode logic sessions may be configured by putting appropriate

  ML text directly into the \verb|ROOT.ML| file.

  \begin{description}

  \item \verb|show_types| and \verb|show_sorts| control printing of type

  constraints for term variables, and sort constraints for type

  variables.  By default, neither of these are shown in output.  If

  \verb|show_sorts| is set to \verb|true|, types are always shown as

  well.

  Note that displaying types and sorts may explain why a polymorphic

  inference rule fails to resolve with some goal, or why a rewrite

  rule does not apply as expected.

  \item \verb|show_consts| controls printing of types of constants when

  displaying a goal state.

  Note that the output can be enormous, because polymorphic constants

  often occur at several different type instances.

  \item \verb|long_names|, \verb|short_names|, and \verb|unique_names|

  control the way of printing fully qualified internal names in

  external form.  See also \secref{sec:antiq} for the document

  antiquotation options of the same names.

  \item \verb|show_brackets| controls bracketing in pretty printed

  output.  If set to \verb|true|, all sub-expressions of the pretty

  printing tree will be parenthesized, even if this produces malformed

  term syntax!  This crude way of showing the internal structure of

  pretty printed entities may occasionally help to diagnose problems

  with operator priorities, for example.

  \item \verb|eta_contract| controls \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymeta}{\isachardoublequote}}-contracted printing of

  terms.

  The \isa{{\isasymeta}}-contraction law asserts \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}{\isasymlambda}x{\isachardot}\ f\ x{\isacharparenright}\ {\isasymequiv}\ f{\isachardoublequote}},

  provided \isa{x} is not free in \isa{f}.  It asserts

  \emph{extensionality} of functions: \isa{{\isachardoublequote}f\ {\isasymequiv}\ g{\isachardoublequote}} if \isa{{\isachardoublequote}f\ x\ {\isasymequiv}\ g\ x{\isachardoublequote}} for all \isa{x}.  Higher-order unification frequently puts

  terms into a fully \isa{{\isasymeta}}-expanded form.  For example, if \isa{F} has type \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}{\isasymtau}\ {\isasymRightarrow}\ {\isasymtau}{\isacharparenright}\ {\isasymRightarrow}\ {\isasymtau}{\isachardoublequote}} then its expanded form is \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymlambda}h{\isachardot}\ F\ {\isacharparenleft}{\isasymlambda}x{\isachardot}\ h\ x{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}.

  Setting \verb|eta_contract| makes Isabelle perform \isa{{\isasymeta}}-contractions before printing, so that \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymlambda}h{\isachardot}\ F\ {\isacharparenleft}{\isasymlambda}x{\isachardot}\ h\ x{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}

  appears simply as \isa{F}.

  Note that the distinction between a term and its \isa{{\isasymeta}}-expanded

  form occasionally matters.  While higher-order resolution and

  rewriting operate modulo \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymalpha}{\isasymbeta}{\isasymeta}{\isachardoublequote}}-conversion, some other tools

  might look at terms more discretely.

  \item \verb|goals_limit| controls the maximum number of subgoals to

  be shown in goal output.

  \item \verb|Proof.show_main_goal| controls whether the main result to

  be proven should be displayed.  This information might be relevant

  for schematic goals, to inspect the current claim that has been

  synthesized so far.

  \item \verb|show_hyps| controls printing of implicit hypotheses of

  local facts.  Normally, only those hypotheses are displayed that are

  \emph{not} covered by the assumptions of the current context: this

  situation indicates a fault in some tool being used.

  By setting \verb|show_hyps| to \verb|true|, output of \emph{all}

  hypotheses can be enforced, which is occasionally useful for

  diagnostic purposes.

  \item \verb|show_tags| controls printing of extra annotations within

  theorems, such as internal position information, or the case names

  being attached by the attribute \hyperlink{attribute.case-names}{\mbox{\isa{case{\isacharunderscore}names}}}.

  Note that the \hyperlink{attribute.tagged}{\mbox{\isa{tagged}}} and \hyperlink{attribute.untagged}{\mbox{\isa{untagged}}}

  attributes provide low-level access to the collection of tags

  associated with a theorem.

  \item \verb|show_question_marks| controls printing of question marks

  for schematic variables, such as \isa{{\isacharquery}x}.  Only the leading

  question mark is affected, the remaining text is unchanged

  (including proper markup for schematic variables that might be

  relevant for user interfaces).

  \end{mldecls}

  These ML functions set limits for pretty printed text.

  \begin{description}

  \item \verb|Pretty.setdepth|~\isa{d} tells the pretty printer to

  limit the printing depth to \isa{d}.  This affects the display of

  types, terms, theorems etc.  The default value is 0, which permits

  printing to an arbitrary depth.  Other useful values for \isa{d}

  are 10 and 20.

  \item \verb|Pretty.setmargin|~\isa{m} tells the pretty printer to

  assume a right margin (page width) of \isa{m}.  The initial margin

  is 76, but user interfaces might adapt the margin automatically when

  resizing windows.

  \item \verb|print_depth|~\isa{n} limits the printing depth of the

  ML toplevel pretty printer; the precise effect depends on the ML

  compiler and run-time system.  Typically \isa{n} should be less

  than 10.  Bigger values such as 100--1000 are useful for debugging.

\isamarkupsection{Mixfix annotations%

}

\isamarkuptrue%

%

\begin{isamarkuptext}%

Mixfix annotations specify concrete \emph{inner syntax} of

  Isabelle types and terms.  Locally fixed parameters in toplevel

  theorem statements, locale specifications etc.\ also admit mixfix

  annotations.

  \indexouternonterm{infix}\indexouternonterm{mixfix}\indexouternonterm{structmixfix}

  \begin{rail}

    infix: '(' ('infix' | 'infixl' | 'infixr') string nat ')'

    ;

    mixfix: infix | '(' string prios? nat? ')' | '(' 'binder' string prios? nat ')'

    ;

    structmixfix: mixfix | '(' 'structure' ')'

    ;

    prios: '[' (nat + ',') ']'

    ;

  \end{rail}

  Here the \railtok{string} specifications refer to the actual mixfix

  template, which may include literal text, spacing, blocks, and

  arguments (denoted by ``\isa{{\isacharunderscore}}''); the special symbol

  ``\verb|\<index>|'' (printed as ``\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymindex}{\isachardoublequote}}'') represents an index

  argument that specifies an implicit structure reference (see also

  \secref{sec:locale}).  Infix and binder declarations provide common

  abbreviations for particular mixfix declarations.  So in practice,

  mixfix templates mostly degenerate to literal text for concrete

  syntax, such as ``\verb|++|'' for an infix symbol.

  \medskip In full generality, mixfix declarations work as follows.

  Suppose a constant \isa{{\isachardoublequote}c\ {\isacharcolon}{\isacharcolon}\ {\isasymtau}\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymRightarrow}\ {\isasymdots}\ {\isasymtau}\isactrlsub n\ {\isasymRightarrow}\ {\isasymtau}{\isachardoublequote}} is

  annotated by \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}mixfix\ {\isacharbrackleft}p\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}{\isacharcomma}\ {\isasymdots}{\isacharcomma}\ p\isactrlsub n{\isacharbrackright}\ p{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}, where \isa{{\isachardoublequote}mixfix{\isachardoublequote}} is a string \isa{{\isachardoublequote}d\isactrlsub {\isadigit{0}}\ {\isacharunderscore}\ d\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isacharunderscore}\ {\isasymdots}\ {\isacharunderscore}\ d\isactrlsub n{\isachardoublequote}} consisting of

  delimiters that surround argument positions as indicated by

  underscores.

  Altogether this determines a production for a context-free priority

  grammar, where for each argument \isa{{\isachardoublequote}i{\isachardoublequote}} the syntactic category

  is determined by \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymtau}\isactrlsub i{\isachardoublequote}} (with priority \isa{{\isachardoublequote}p\isactrlsub i{\isachardoublequote}}), and

  the result category is determined from \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymtau}{\isachardoublequote}} (with

  priority \isa{{\isachardoublequote}p{\isachardoublequote}}).  Priority specifications are optional, with

  default 0 for arguments and 1000 for the result.

  Since \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymtau}{\isachardoublequote}} may be again a function type, the constant

  type scheme may have more argument positions than the mixfix

  pattern.  Printing a nested application \isa{{\isachardoublequote}c\ t\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ t\isactrlsub m{\isachardoublequote}} for

  \isa{{\isachardoublequote}m\ {\isachargreater}\ n{\isachardoublequote}} works by attaching concrete notation only to the

  innermost part, essentially by printing \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}c\ t\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ t\isactrlsub n{\isacharparenright}\ {\isasymdots}\ t\isactrlsub m{\isachardoublequote}}

  instead.  If a term has fewer arguments than specified in the mixfix

  template, the concrete syntax is ignored.

  \medskip A mixfix template may also contain additional directives

  for pretty printing, notably spaces, blocks, and breaks.  The

  general template format is a sequence over any of the following

  entities.

  \begin{description}

  \item \isa{{\isachardoublequote}d{\isachardoublequote}} is a delimiter, namely a non-empty sequence of

  characters other than the following special characters:

  \smallskip

  \begin{tabular}{ll}

    \verb|'| & single quote \\

    \verb|_| & underscore \\

    \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymindex}{\isachardoublequote}} & index symbol \\

    \verb|(| & open parenthesis \\

    \verb|)| & close parenthesis \\

    \verb|/| & slash \\

  \end{tabular}

  \medskip

  \item \verb|'| escapes the special meaning of these

  meta-characters, producing a literal version of the following

  character, unless that is a blank.

  A single quote followed by a blank separates delimiters, without

  affecting printing, but input tokens may have additional white space

  here.

  \item \verb|_| is an argument position, which stands for a

  certain syntactic category in the underlying grammar.

  \item \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymindex}{\isachardoublequote}} is an indexed argument position; this is the place

  where implicit structure arguments can be attached.

  \item \isa{{\isachardoublequote}s{\isachardoublequote}} is a non-empty sequence of spaces for printing.

  This and the following specifications do not affect parsing at all.

  \item \verb|(|\isa{n} opens a pretty printing block.  The

  optional number specifies how much indentation to add when a line

  break occurs within the block.  If the parenthesis is not followed

  by digits, the indentation defaults to 0.  A block specified via

  \verb|(00| is unbreakable.

  \item \verb|)| closes a pretty printing block.

  \item \verb|//| forces a line break.

  \item \verb|/|\isa{s} allows a line break.  Here \isa{s}

  stands for the string of spaces (zero or more) right after the

  slash.  These spaces are printed if the break is \emph{not} taken.

  \end{description}

  For example, the template \verb|(_ +/ _)| specifies an infix

  operator.  There are two argument positions; the delimiter

  \verb|+| is preceded by a space and followed by a space or

  line break; the entire phrase is a pretty printing block.

  The general idea of pretty printing with blocks and breaks is also

  described in \cite{paulson-ml2}.%

\isamarkuptrue%

%

\begin{isamarkuptext}%

A context-free grammar consists of a set of \emph{terminal

  symbols}, a set of \emph{nonterminal symbols} and a set of

  \emph{productions}.  Productions have the form \isa{{\isachardoublequote}A\ {\isacharequal}\ {\isasymgamma}{\isachardoublequote}},

  where \isa{A} is a nonterminal and \isa{{\isasymgamma}} is a string of

  terminals and nonterminals.  One designated nonterminal is called

  the \emph{root symbol}.  The language defined by the grammar

  consists of all strings of terminals that can be derived from the

  root symbol by applying productions as rewrite rules.

  The standard Isabelle parser for inner syntax uses a \emph{priority

  grammar}.  Each nonterminal is decorated by an integer priority:

  \isa{{\isachardoublequote}A\isactrlsup {\isacharparenleft}\isactrlsup p\isactrlsup {\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}.  In a derivation, \isa{{\isachardoublequote}A\isactrlsup {\isacharparenleft}\isactrlsup p\isactrlsup {\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}} may be rewritten

  using a production \isa{{\isachardoublequote}A\isactrlsup {\isacharparenleft}\isactrlsup q\isactrlsup {\isacharparenright}\ {\isacharequal}\ {\isasymgamma}{\isachardoublequote}} only if \isa{{\isachardoublequote}p\ {\isasymle}\ q{\isachardoublequote}}.  Any

  priority grammar can be translated into a normal context-free

  grammar by introducing new nonterminals and productions.

  \medskip Formally, a set of context free productions \isa{G}

  induces a derivation relation \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymlongrightarrow}\isactrlsub G{\isachardoublequote}} as follows.  Let \isa{{\isasymalpha}} and \isa{{\isasymbeta}} denote strings of terminal or nonterminal symbols.

  Then \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymalpha}\ A\isactrlsup {\isacharparenleft}\isactrlsup p\isactrlsup {\isacharparenright}\ {\isasymbeta}\ {\isasymlongrightarrow}\isactrlsub G\ {\isasymalpha}\ {\isasymgamma}\ {\isasymbeta}{\isachardoublequote}} holds if and only if \isa{G}

  contains some production \isa{{\isachardoublequote}A\isactrlsup {\isacharparenleft}\isactrlsup q\isactrlsup {\isacharparenright}\ {\isacharequal}\ {\isasymgamma}{\isachardoublequote}} for \isa{{\isachardoublequote}p\ {\isasymle}\ q{\isachardoublequote}}.

  \medskip The following grammar for arithmetic expressions

  demonstrates how binding power and associativity of operators can be

  enforced by priorities.

  The choice of priorities determines that \verb|-| binds

  tighter than \verb|*|, which binds tighter than \verb|+|.  Furthermore \verb|+| associates to the left and

  \verb|*| to the right.

  \medskip For clarity, grammars obey these conventions:

  \begin{itemize}

  \item All priorities must lie between 0 and 1000.

  \item Priority 0 on the right-hand side and priority 1000 on the

  left-hand side may be omitted.

  \item The production \isa{{\isachardoublequote}A\isactrlsup {\isacharparenleft}\isactrlsup p\isactrlsup {\isacharparenright}\ {\isacharequal}\ {\isasymalpha}{\isachardoublequote}} is written as \isa{{\isachardoublequote}A\ {\isacharequal}\ {\isasymalpha}\ {\isacharparenleft}p{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}, i.e.\ the priority of the left-hand side actually appears in

  a column on the far right.

  \item Alternatives are separated by \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharbar}{\isachardoublequote}}.

  \item Repetition is indicated by dots \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}{\isasymdots}{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}} in an informal

  but obvious way.

  \end{itemize}

  Using these conventions, the example grammar specification above

  takes the form:

  \begin{center}

  \begin{tabular}{rclc}

    \isa{A} & \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharequal}{\isachardoublequote}} & \verb|(| \isa{A} \verb|)| \\

  \medskip Here literal terminals are printed \verb|verbatim|;

  see also \secref{sec:inner-lex} for further token categories of the

  inner syntax.  The meaning of the nonterminals defined by the above

  grammar is as follows:

  \begin{description}

  \item \indexref{inner}{syntax}{any}\hyperlink{syntax.inner.any}{\mbox{\isa{any}}} denotes any term.

  \item \indexref{inner}{syntax}{prop}\hyperlink{syntax.inner.prop}{\mbox{\isa{prop}}} denotes meta-level propositions,

  which are terms of type \isa{prop}.  The syntax of such formulae of

  the meta-logic is carefully distinguished from usual conventions for

  object-logics.  In particular, plain \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymlambda}{\isachardoublequote}}-term notation is

  \emph{not} recognized as \hyperlink{syntax.inner.prop}{\mbox{\isa{prop}}}.

  \item \indexref{inner}{syntax}{aprop}\hyperlink{syntax.inner.aprop}{\mbox{\isa{aprop}}} denotes atomic propositions, which

  are embedded into regular \hyperlink{syntax.inner.prop}{\mbox{\isa{prop}}} by means of an

  explicit \verb|PROP| token.

  Terms of type \isa{prop} with non-constant head, e.g.\ a plain

  variable, are printed in this form.  Constants that yield type \isa{prop} are expected to provide their own concrete syntax; otherwise

  the printed version will appear like \hyperlink{syntax.inner.logic}{\mbox{\isa{logic}}} and

  cannot be parsed again as \hyperlink{syntax.inner.prop}{\mbox{\isa{prop}}}.

  \item \indexref{inner}{syntax}{logic}\hyperlink{syntax.inner.logic}{\mbox{\isa{logic}}} denotes arbitrary terms of a

  logical type, excluding type \isa{prop}.  This is the main

  syntactic category of object-logic entities, covering plain \isa{{\isasymlambda}}-term notation (variables, abstraction, application), plus

  anything defined by the user.

  When specifying notation for logical entities, all logical types

  (excluding \isa{prop}) are \emph{collapsed} to this single category

  of \hyperlink{syntax.inner.logic}{\mbox{\isa{logic}}}.

  \item \indexref{inner}{syntax}{idt}\hyperlink{syntax.inner.idt}{\mbox{\isa{idt}}} denotes identifiers, possibly

  constrained by types.

  \item \indexref{inner}{syntax}{idts}\hyperlink{syntax.inner.idts}{\mbox{\isa{idts}}} denotes a sequence of \indexref{inner}{syntax}{idt}\hyperlink{syntax.inner.idt}{\mbox{\isa{idt}}}.  This is the most basic category for variables in

  iterated binders, such as \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymlambda}{\isachardoublequote}} or \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymAnd}{\isachardoublequote}}.

  \item \indexref{inner}{syntax}{pttrn}\hyperlink{syntax.inner.pttrn}{\mbox{\isa{pttrn}}} and \indexref{inner}{syntax}{pttrns}\hyperlink{syntax.inner.pttrns}{\mbox{\isa{pttrns}}}

  denote patterns for abstraction, cases bindings etc.  In Pure, these

  categories start as a merely copy of \hyperlink{syntax.inner.idt}{\mbox{\isa{idt}}} and

  \hyperlink{syntax.inner.idts}{\mbox{\isa{idts}}}, respectively.  Object-logics may add

  additional productions for binding forms.

  \item \indexref{inner}{syntax}{type}\hyperlink{syntax.inner.type}{\mbox{\isa{type}}} denotes types of the meta-logic.

  \item \indexref{inner}{syntax}{sort}\hyperlink{syntax.inner.sort}{\mbox{\isa{sort}}} denotes meta-level sorts.

  \end{description}

  Here are some further explanations of certain syntax features.

  \begin{itemize}

  \item In \hyperlink{syntax.inner.idts}{\mbox{\isa{idts}}}, note that \isa{{\isachardoublequote}x\ {\isacharcolon}{\isacharcolon}\ nat\ y{\isachardoublequote}} is

  parsed as \isa{{\isachardoublequote}x\ {\isacharcolon}{\isacharcolon}\ {\isacharparenleft}nat\ y{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}, treating \isa{y} like a type

  constructor applied to \isa{nat}.  To avoid this interpretation,

  write \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}x\ {\isacharcolon}{\isacharcolon}\ nat{\isacharparenright}\ y{\isachardoublequote}} with explicit parentheses.

  \item Similarly, \isa{{\isachardoublequote}x\ {\isacharcolon}{\isacharcolon}\ nat\ y\ {\isacharcolon}{\isacharcolon}\ nat{\isachardoublequote}} is parsed as \isa{{\isachardoublequote}x\ {\isacharcolon}{\isacharcolon}\ {\isacharparenleft}nat\ y\ {\isacharcolon}{\isacharcolon}\ nat{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}.  The correct form is \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}x\ {\isacharcolon}{\isacharcolon}\ nat{\isacharparenright}\ {\isacharparenleft}y\ {\isacharcolon}{\isacharcolon}\ nat{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}, or \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}x\ {\isacharcolon}{\isacharcolon}\ nat{\isacharparenright}\ y\ {\isacharcolon}{\isacharcolon}\ nat{\isachardoublequote}} if \isa{y} is last in the

  sequence of identifiers.

  \item Type constraints for terms bind very weakly.  For example,

  \isa{{\isachardoublequote}x\ {\isacharless}\ y\ {\isacharcolon}{\isacharcolon}\ nat{\isachardoublequote}} is normally parsed as \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}x\ {\isacharless}\ y{\isacharparenright}\ {\isacharcolon}{\isacharcolon}\ nat{\isachardoublequote}}, unless \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharless}{\isachardoublequote}} has a very low priority, in which case the

  input is likely to be ambiguous.  The correct form is \isa{{\isachardoublequote}x\ {\isacharless}\ {\isacharparenleft}y\ {\isacharcolon}{\isacharcolon}\ nat{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}.

  \item Constraints may be either written with two literal colons

  ``\verb|::|'' or the double-colon symbol \verb|\<Colon>|,

  which actually looks exactly the same in some {\LaTeX} styles.

  \item Dummy variables (written as underscore) may occur in different

  roles.

  \begin{description}

  \item A type ``\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharunderscore}{\isachardoublequote}}'' or ``\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharunderscore}\ {\isacharcolon}{\isacharcolon}\ sort{\isachardoublequote}}'' acts like an

  anonymous inference parameter, which is filled-in according to the

  most general type produced by the type-checking phase.

  \item A bound ``\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharunderscore}{\isachardoublequote}}'' refers to a vacuous abstraction, where

  the body does not refer to the binding introduced here.  As in the

  term \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymlambda}x\ {\isacharunderscore}{\isachardot}\ x{\isachardoublequote}}, which is \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymalpha}{\isachardoublequote}}-equivalent to \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymlambda}x\ y{\isachardot}\ x{\isachardoublequote}}.

  \item A free ``\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharunderscore}{\isachardoublequote}}'' refers to an implicit outer binding.

  Higher definitional packages usually allow forms like \isa{{\isachardoublequote}f\ x\ {\isacharunderscore}\ {\isacharequal}\ x{\isachardoublequote}}.

  \item A schematic ``\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharunderscore}{\isachardoublequote}}'' (within a term pattern, see

  \secref{sec:term-decls}) refers to an anonymous variable that is

  implicitly abstracted over its context of locally bound variables.

  For example, this allows pattern matching of \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharbraceleft}x{\isachardot}\ f\ x\ {\isacharequal}\ g\ x{\isacharbraceright}{\isachardoublequote}} against \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharbraceleft}x{\isachardot}\ {\isacharunderscore}\ {\isacharequal}\ {\isacharunderscore}{\isacharbraceright}{\isachardoublequote}}, or even \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharbraceleft}{\isacharunderscore}{\isachardot}\ {\isacharunderscore}\ {\isacharequal}\ {\isacharunderscore}{\isacharbraceright}{\isachardoublequote}} by

  using both bound and schematic dummies.

  \end{description}

  \item The three literal dots ``\verb|...|'' may be also

  written as ellipsis symbol \verb|\<dots>|.  In both cases this

  refers to a special schematic variable, which is bound in the

  context.  This special term abbreviation works nicely with

  calculational reasoning (\secref{sec:calculation}).

\begin{isamarkuptext}%

The inner lexical syntax vaguely resembles the outer one

  (\secref{sec:outer-lex}), but some details are different.  There are

  two main categories of inner syntax tokens:

  \begin{enumerate}

  \item \emph{delimiters} --- the literal tokens occurring in

  productions of the given priority grammar (cf.\

  \secref{sec:priority-grammar});

  \item \emph{named tokens} --- various categories of identifiers etc.

  \end{enumerate}

  Delimiters override named tokens and may thus render certain

  identifiers inaccessible.  Sometimes the logical context admits

  alternative ways to refer to the same entity, potentially via

  qualified names.

  \medskip The categories for named tokens are defined once and for

  all as follows, reusing some categories of the outer token syntax

  (\secref{sec:outer-lex}).

  \end{supertabular}

  \end{center}

  The token categories \hyperlink{syntax.inner.num}{\mbox{\isa{num}}}, \hyperlink{syntax.inner.float-token}{\mbox{\isa{float{\isacharunderscore}token}}}, \hyperlink{syntax.inner.xnum}{\mbox{\isa{xnum}}}, and \hyperlink{syntax.inner.xstr}{\mbox{\isa{xstr}}} are

  not used in Pure.  Object-logics may implement numerals and string

  constants by adding appropriate syntax declarations, together with

  some translation functions (e.g.\ see Isabelle/HOL).

  The derived categories \indexdef{inner}{syntax}{num\_const}\hypertarget{syntax.inner.num-const}{\hyperlink{syntax.inner.num-const}{\mbox{\isa{num{\isacharunderscore}const}}}} and

  \indexdef{inner}{syntax}{float\_const}\hypertarget{syntax.inner.float-const}{\hyperlink{syntax.inner.float-const}{\mbox{\isa{float{\isacharunderscore}const}}}} provide robust access to \hyperlink{syntax.inner.num}{\mbox{\isa{num}}}, and \hyperlink{syntax.inner.float-token}{\mbox{\isa{float{\isacharunderscore}token}}}, respectively: the

  syntax tree holds a syntactic constant instead of a free variable.%

  Syntax translation functions written in ML admit almost arbitrary

  manipulations of Isabelle's inner syntax.  Any of the above commands

  have a single \railqtok{text} argument that refers to an ML

  expression of appropriate type, which are as follows by default:

%FIXME proper antiquotations

\begin{ttbox}

val parse_ast_translation   : (string * (ast list -> ast)) list

val parse_translation       : (string * (term list -> term)) list

val print_translation       : (string * (term list -> term)) list

val typed_print_translation :

  (string * (bool -> typ -> term list -> term)) list

val print_ast_translation   : (string * (ast list -> ast)) list

\end{ttbox}

  If the \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}advanced{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}} option is given, the corresponding

  translation functions may depend on the current theory or proof

  context.  This allows to implement advanced syntax mechanisms, as

  translations functions may refer to specific theory declarations or

  auxiliary proof data.

  See also \cite{isabelle-ref} for more information on the general

  concept of syntax transformations in Isabelle.

  \item \hyperlink{command.print-syntax}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{print{\isacharunderscore}syntax}}}} prints the inner syntax of the

  current context.  The output can be quite large; the most important

  sections are explained below.

  \begin{description}

  \item \isa{{\isachardoublequote}lexicon{\isachardoublequote}} lists the delimiters of the inner token

  language; see \secref{sec:inner-lex}.

  \item \isa{{\isachardoublequote}prods{\isachardoublequote}} lists the productions of the underlying

  priority grammar; see \secref{sec:priority-grammar}.

  The nonterminal \isa{{\isachardoublequote}A\isactrlsup {\isacharparenleft}\isactrlsup p\isactrlsup {\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}} is rendered in plain text as \isa{{\isachardoublequote}A{\isacharbrackleft}p{\isacharbrackright}{\isachardoublequote}}; delimiters are quoted.  Many productions have an extra

  \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymdots}\ {\isacharequal}{\isachargreater}\ name{\isachardoublequote}}.  These names later become the heads of parse

  trees; they also guide the pretty printer.

  Productions without such parse tree names are called \emph{copy

  productions}.  Their right-hand side must have exactly one

  nonterminal symbol (or named token).  The parser does not create a

  new parse tree node for copy productions, but simply returns the

  parse tree of the right-hand symbol.

  If the right-hand side of a copy production consists of a single

  nonterminal without any delimiters, then it is called a \emph{chain

  production}.  Chain productions act as abbreviations: conceptually,

  they are removed from the grammar by adding new productions.

  Priority information attached to chain productions is ignored; only

  the dummy value \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharminus}{\isadigit{1}}{\isachardoublequote}} is displayed.

  \item \isa{{\isachardoublequote}print\ modes{\isachardoublequote}} lists the alternative print modes

  provided by this grammar; see \secref{sec:print-modes}.

  \item \isa{{\isachardoublequote}parse{\isacharunderscore}rules{\isachardoublequote}} and \isa{{\isachardoublequote}print{\isacharunderscore}rules{\isachardoublequote}} relate to

  syntax translations (macros); see \secref{sec:syn-trans}.

  \item \isa{{\isachardoublequote}parse{\isacharunderscore}ast{\isacharunderscore}translation{\isachardoublequote}} and \isa{{\isachardoublequote}print{\isacharunderscore}ast{\isacharunderscore}translation{\isachardoublequote}} list sets of constants that invoke

  translation functions for abstract syntax trees, which are only

  required in very special situations; see \secref{sec:tr-funs}.

  \item \isa{{\isachardoublequote}parse{\isacharunderscore}translation{\isachardoublequote}} and \isa{{\isachardoublequote}print{\isacharunderscore}translation{\isachardoublequote}}

  list the sets of constants that invoke regular translation

  functions; see \secref{sec:tr-funs}.
