/*
 * A Rope is a String or a list of Ropes. In the future, I hope to
 * make this into a powerful extension of Delimiters' capabilities...
 * if I can get around to it.
 *
 * (I may also consider including the possibility of letting a Rope
 * be a map from Strings to Ropes, to let this more closely resemble
 * simple JSON-like formats.)

 * TODO: Add visitor functionality
