+# You may read RFC 4506 for context, however it is only a source of inspiration.
+# Grammar is easy to deduce from the parser.

+# Native types: bool, u{8,16,32,64}, i{8,16,32,64}, string
+#
+# Don't define any new types, unless you hate yourself, then it's okay to do so.
+# Backends tend to be a pain in the arse, for different reasons.
+#
+# All numbers are encoded in big-endian byte order.
+# Booleans are one byte each.
+# Strings must be valid UTF-8, use u8<> to lift that restriction.
+# String and array lengths are encoded as u32.
+# Enumeration values automatically start at 1, and are encoded as i8.
+# Any struct or union field may be a variable-length array.
+#
+# Message framing is done externally, but is advised to also prefix u32 lengths,
+# unless this role is already filled by, e.g., WebSocket.
+#
+# Usage: env LC_ALL=C awk -f lxdrgen.awk -f lxdrgen-{c,go,mjs}.awk \
