        Simpler Parsing in Python.
        
        Usage
        -----
        
        .. Yes, this is a bit pants, but it'll go into Sphinx eventually. Maybe.
        
        .. code:: python
        
            from gobble import *
        
        Basic parsers:
        
        .. code:: python
        
            @parser
            def natural():
                digits = yield character('0123456789').star
                return int(''.join(digits))
        
        Alternatives:
        
        .. code:: python
        
            @parser
            def literal_null():
                yield literal('NULL')
                return None
        
            literal = natural / literal_null
        
        Optional elements:
        
        .. code:: python
        
            @parser
            def natural():
                sign = yield character('-+').option('+')
                factor = {'-': -1, '+': 1}[sign]
                value = yield natural
                return value * factor
        
        Sequencing with operators:
        
        .. code:: python
        
            whitespace = character(' \n\r\t').star
        
            literal_expr = literal << whitespace
        
        Actually running a parser:
        
        .. code:: python
        
            value = literal_expr.execute(input_string)
            print(value)
