//
// For example, the parse of `x++;` is written as:
// "program(expressionStmnt(postfix(identifier(x) ++) ;))"
//
// A Node is written as "name(item1 item2 item3)", with additional whitespace
// allowed anywhere between the name, parentheses, and items.
//
// Tokens don't need to be escaped unless they contain '(', ')', whitespace, or
// backticks, or are empty.  If they do, they can be written enclosed in backticks.
// To escape a backtick within backticks, double it.
//
// `stringify` generates "canonical" tree strings, which have no extra escaping
// or whitespace, just one space between items in a Node.
