<groupseq>
The <groupseq> element is part of the subset of elements that
define syntax diagrams in DITA. A group is a logical set of pieces of syntax that
go together.
Within the syntax definition, groups of keywords, delimiters and other syntax units
act as a
combined unit, and they occur in a specific sequence, as delimited by the
<groupseq> element. This element
is part of the DITA programming domain, a special set of DITA elements
designed to document programming tasks, concepts, and reference information.
