Jump to the parse> label in the script.
The .reparse command combined with the parse> label is an important technique for ensuring that all grammar rules or reductions will take place for a given parse token sequence.
Unless you are convinced that a previous parse block will never be applicable, you should include a .reparse command in every block where new grammar parse tokens are created and pushed onto the ℙ𝕖𝕡 stack .
The “.reparse” command makes the interpreter jump to the “parse>” label. The .reparse command takes no arguments, and is not terminated with a semi-colon. The .reparse command is important for ensuring that all shift-reductions occur at a particular phase of a script.
If there is no 'parse>' label in the script, then it is a (compile-time) error to use the “.reparse” command.
