That's possible with XML (hence > "extensible") DTDs specify a grammar, not an interpretation. The ISO C standard specifies the syntax, grammar and semantics of C.

It says nothing about semantics. > The newspeak words in Burgess's "A clockwork orange" aren't in fact > explained anywhere Don't you mean George Orwell's _1984_?
