Declarative tags

Declarative tags describe the overall script structure: they define the states building up the bot business logic, determine the imported files, and execute code and pattern initialization.

Tag	Description
init	Defines a block code which is executed only once, when the script is loading. Typically, this code initializes global variables and functions.
patterns	Declares named patterns used in the script.
require	This tag is used for importing files into the script.
state	Declares a state in which the dialog context can be. States can be nested into each other to an arbitrary depth.
theme	Declares a theme. States can only exist within themes.
