This is an description of a qedeq module file (for version 0.00.53).

This text describes the format of a qedeq MODULE file for the rule version
1.00.00. A qedeq file contains a list of arguments in ASCII format.
An argument could be a list of argument itself.

There are two atomic arguments:
"" = Text              atomic argument, could be any quoted text
                        the character sequence "" within the quoted
                        text will be replaced by ":
                          "Alice said ""Hello"" to the queen."
n  = Counter           atomic argument, could be any positive integer
                        (1, 2, 3, ...)
Multiple arguments are separated by ","  (mostly left out in the
following description). White space between the arguments is
optional.

This description shows an explanation of the arguments that are used.

The following characters that precede an explanation have a special
meaning:
? = optional occurrence, this argument could be left out
* = zero or more occurrences
+ = one or more occurrences

Text could include links to labels
In proofs external references could be made by "alias.label",
internal references are made by "label". (The alias must be
defined in the "IMPORT" list.)

Version numbers are counted as follows:

,- main version, no compatibility guaranteed
| ,- compatible version, any reference should work further on
| |   could have more paragraphs
| |   - compatible version (only different comments, or proofs,
| |  |   no different imports. rule version might be lower
| |  |
0.00.00  normal formatting (could be extended: 0.00001.000001)

The file name is build by the name of the module, followed by
a "." and the version number of the module and a "_" and the rule
version number and the extension ".qedeq"
It is checked that the file name and the arguments of
HEADER( SPEC .. fit together.
All rules require the rule version to be greater or equal to
1.00.00

Every loaded module is saved in a local file buffer
Its file path represents the web location it came from:

http://www.qedeq.org/0_00_53/propaxiom_1.00.00_1.00.00.qedeq
 has the following local representation:
buffer/http/www.qedeq.org/0_00_53/propaxiom_1.00.00_1.00.00.qedeq

ftp://www.qedeq.org/0_00_53/predaxiom_1.00.00_1.00.00.qedeq
 has the following local representation:
buffer/ftp/www.qedeq.org/0_00_53/predaxiom_1.00.00_1.00.00.qedeq

Imports could have relative paths (relative to current module).
Once a module is successfully loaded, it makes an entry into an
global hash table during runtime.
If a module is needed (IMPORT), the urls are tried successive:
first the hash table is searched, then the local file buffer,
then the urls itself.
