Message Grammar
From AMOS WIKI
AMOS 3-code message specification
v1.3.0
NOTES:
- Whitespace is not allowed between symbols unless otherwise noted.
- Character symbols are defined with Perl style character classes.
- A multi-line field may not contain any lines that consist of a single period followed by a newline, as this is reserved for terminating the multi-line field.
- Modeled on Celera Assembler 3-code format.
