@implementation MiscMergeCommand
/*" The MiscMergeCommand class implements a merge command.  Since the
MiscKit merge engine can dynamically add new commands, it is possible
to create custom subclasses of MiscMergeCommand to implement new
functionality in the engine.  The merge engine already implements
most of the commands a user would want, but certain applications may
wish to override those commands, replace them, or add new commands.

To create a subclass, two methods, -#{parseFromString:} and
-#{executeForMerge:} need to be implemented.  The first is expected to
break up a text string into whatever arguments a particular MiscMergeCommand
subclass needs in order to function.  The second performs, during a merge,
whatever special task the command is designed to do.

The other methods in this object may be used by subclasses to aid in
parsing the command string.  They can grab key words, conditional operators,
an arguments (single word or quoted string).  A special kind of argument,
promptable, is also supported.  A promptable argument is expected to have
its actual value determined at run time.

When implementing commands, the full API of the MiscMergeEngine object is
available.  This allows the programmer to store information in the engine,
manipulate the symbol tables used for resolving fields, and alter the
output being created by the merge.

The MiscKit source code is a good place to look for examples of how
to implement various MiscMergeCommand subclasses.

Note that it %{aKeyWord} is optional, then it will only be found

decision, since the merger has a few pseudo-commands, such as copy,

MiscMergeCommand subclasses should pass YES for %{flag} this
subtle design decision should not have a major impact.
