Do you really mean x*i and x'*i, in which case this is more normally  
described as x*i and x*j where i and j *may* be equal.  The text goes on  
to say that x = x' in which case this should be x*i and x*i.  The prime  
decoration is not described in the section on stack notations, if you wish  
to keep the x' notation, you must provide a description of its meaning.

There is no standard notation for decorating an xt, thus "xt-node" has no  
meaning at the moment.  You should either provide some text to describe  
the stack notation or replace this with the standard stack notation "xt"  
and explain the restrictions on the xt in the body of the definition, as  
you currently do.

> 2.1 Opaque NTs

The opaque NT data type will need to be added to the data type section.
