/**
 * **NOTE:** You probably will never need to use this function. Most parsing
 * can be accomplished using `Parsimmon.regexp` and combination with
 * `Parsimmon.seq` and `Parsimmon.alt`.
 *
 * You can add a primitive parser (similar to the included ones) by using
 * `Parsimmon(fn)`. This is an example of how to create a parser that matches
 * any character except the one provided:
 *
 * ```javascript
 * function notChar(char) {
 *   return Parsimmon(function(input, i) {
 *     if (input.charAt(i) !== char) {
 *       return Parsimmon.makeSuccess(i + 1, input.charAt(i));
 *     }
 *     return Parsimmon.makeFailure(i, 'anything different than "' + char + '"');
 *   });
 * }
 * ```
 *
 * This parser can then be used and composed the same way all the existing
 * ones are used and composed, for example:
 *
 * ```javascript
 * var parser =
 *   Parsimmon.seq(
 *     Parsimmon.string('a'),
 *     notChar('b').times(5)
 *   );
 * parser.parse('accccc');
 * //=> {status: true, value: ['a', ['c', 'c', 'c', 'c', 'c']]}
 * ```

     * For having the resulting language rules return typed parsers, e.g. `Parser<Foo>` instead of

     * {
     *   rule1: type;
     *   rule2: type;
     * }
     * ```
     *
     * For example:
     *
     * ```javascript
     * const language = Parsimmon.createLanguage<{
     *   expr: Expr;
     *   numberLiteral: number;
     *   stringLiteral: string;

     * {
     *   expr: Parser<Expr>;
     *   numberLiteral: Parser<number>;
     *   stringLiteral: Parser<string>;
     * }
     * ```
