                             OneOrMore

Repetition of one or more of the given expression.

Parameters:

- expr - expression that must match one or more times
- stopOn - (default=`None`) - expression for a terminating sentinel (only required if the sentinel would ordinarily match the repetition expression)

Example:

       data_word = Word(alphas)
       label = data_word + FollowedBy(':')
       attr_expr = Group(label + Suppress(':') + OneOrMore(data_word).setParseAction(' '.join))

       text = "shape: SQUARE posn: upper left color: BLACK"
       OneOrMore(attr_expr).parseString(text).pprint()  # Fail! read 'color' as data instead of next label -> [['shape', 'SQUARE color']]

       # use stopOn attribute for OneOrMore to avoid reading label string as part of the data
       attr_expr = Group(label + Suppress(':') + OneOrMore(data_word, stopOn=label).setParseAction(' '.join))
       OneOrMore(attr_expr).parseString(text).pprint() # Better -> [['shape', 'SQUARE'], ['posn', 'upper left'], ['color', 'BLACK']]

       # could also be written as
       (attr_expr * (1,)).parseString(text).pprint()
