+				This class provides an interface to the XML parser,
+				{{http://matthewwild.co.uk/projects/luaexpat/|LuaExpat}}. It provides a SAX interface with an
+				incremental XML parser.</p>
+				<p>
+				With an event-based API like SAX the XML document can be fed to the parser in chunks, and the
+				parsing begins as soon as the parser receives the first document chunk. LuaExpat reports parsing
+				events (such as the start and end of elements) directly to the application through callbacks. The
+				parsing of huge documents can benefit from this piecemeal operation.</p>
+				<p>
+				See the online
+				{{http://matthewwild.co.uk/projects/luaexpat/manual.html#parser|LuaExpat documentation}} for details
+				on how to work with this parser. The code examples below should provide some basic help, too.
