/** <module> Define Quasi Quotation syntax
@ingroup swi

Inspired                                                              by
[Haskell](http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Quasiquotation), SWI-Prolog
support _quasi quotation_. Quasi quotation   allows for embedding (long)
strings using the syntax of an external   language  (e.g., HTML, SQL) in
Prolog text and syntax-aware  embedding  of   Prolog  variables  in this
syntax. At the same time,  quasi   quotation  provides an alternative to
represent long strings and atoms in Prolog.

The basic form of a quasi quotation  is defined below. Here, `Syntax` is
an arbitrary Prolog term that must  parse   into  a  _callable_ (atom or
compound) term and Quotation is an arbitrary sequence of characters, not
including the sequence =||}|=. If this sequence needs to be embedded, it
must be escaped according to the  rules   of  the target language or the
`quoter' must provide an escaping mechanism.

    ==
    {|Syntax||Quotation|}
    ==

While reading a Prolog term, and if   the  Prolog flag =quasi_quotes= is
set to =true= (which is the case if  this library is loaded), the parser
collects quasi quotations. After reading the final full stop, the parser
makes the call below. Here, `SyntaxName` is the functor name of `Syntax`
above and `SyntaxArgs` is a list   holding  the arguments, i.e., `Syntax
=.. [SyntaxName|SyntaxArgs]`. Splitting the  syntax   into  its name and
arguments is done to make the quasi  quotation parser a predicate with a
consistent arity 4, regardless of the number of additional arguments.

    ==
    call(+SyntaxName, +Content, +SyntaxArgs, +VariableNames, -Result)
    ==

The arguments are defined as

  - `SyntaxName` is the principal functor of the quasi quotation syntax.
  This must be declared using quasi_quotation_syntax/1 and there must be
  a predicate SyntaxName/4.

  - `Content` is an opaque term that carries the content of the quasi
  quoted material and position information about the source code. It is
  passed to with_quasi_quote_input/3.

  - `SyntaxArgs` carries the additional arguments of the `Syntax`. These are
  commonly used to make the parameter passing between the clause and the
  quasi quotation explicit. For example:

    ==
	...,
	{|html(Name, Address)||
	 <tr><td>Name<td>Address</tr>
	 |}
    ==

  - `VariableNames` is the complete variable dictionary of the clause as
  it is made available throug read_term/3 with the option
  =variable_names=. It is a list of terms `Name = Var`.

  - `Result` is a variable that must be unified to resulting term.
  Typically, this term is structured Prolog tree that carries a
  (partial) representation of the abstract syntax tree with embedded
  variables that pass the Prolog parameters. This term is normally
  either passed to a predicate that serializes the abstract syntax tree,
  or a predicate that processes the result in Prolog. For example, HTML
  is commonly embedded for writing HTML documents (see
  library(http/html_write)). Examples of languages that may be embedded
  for processing in Prolog are SPARQL, RuleML or regular expressions.

The file library(http/http_quasiquotations) provides   the,  suprisingly
simple, quasi quotation parser for HTML.
