Creating an extensible mid-level parser that makes sense in C.
Looking at BNF-like syntax and C syntax similarities.
Tossing flex as far as we can throw it. While its still burning.
The file set here isn't 'finalized' in any way but it's been stable for a few days. These examples are therefor not about THIS set of functions but about parsing in general, although this file set will very likely be part of the mc2 parsing system...
