I cut/paste/modify the lexer out of awk or something else
(8c, etc). It seems like at times lex forces you to unnaturally fit
things into its model. I've often wondered if an specialized language
with an expression syntax that lends itself to this type of work
wouldn't be better. Awk is nearly there.
