<para>
The parsing class that allows creating a parser for reading from a
particular syntax (or can guess and use contextual information) that
will on demand generate RDF triples to a handler function, as chunks
of syntax data are passed into the parser.  Parsing can be done from
strings in memory, files or from URIs on the web.
</para>

<para>
There are also methods to deal with handling errors, warnings and
returned triples as well as setting options (features) that can
adjust how parsing is performed.
