.SYNOPSIS
    Kotlin PipeScript Language Definition.

    Multiline comments can be preceeded or followed by 'empty' syntax, which will be ignored.

    The Kotlin Inline PipeScript Transpiler will consider the following syntax to be empty:

    * ```null```
    * ```""```
    * ```''```

# We start off by declaring a number of regular expressions:
$startComment = '/\*' # * Start Comments ```\*```
$endComment   = '\*/' # * End Comments ```/*```
$Whitespace   = '[\s\n\r]{0,}'
# * IgnoredContext ```String.empty```, ```null```, blank strings and characters
