Consider relaxing literals #17

@ErisDS

Description

@ErisDS

Currently a literal is defined as:

Any character string which follows these rules:
- Cannot start with - or : but may contain them
- Cannot contain any of these symbols: '"+,()><=[] unless they are escaped
- Cannot contain whitespace
  • reconsider not allowing : at the start
  • reconsider if non-quote symbols can be allowed inside, but not at the start/end without escaping
  • reconsider whitespace

When reconsidering we must:

  • look for valid use cases
  • write lots of tests in both the lexer and parser
