Yes, and Slex is the other one Not to mention XPressive?
Well, XPressive is not technically a lexer. I'm urging Eric to make it.
I remember discussing this with you and Hartmut, but I don't recall the outcome. I think we decided xpressive needed some features before it could be usable as a lexer, but I don't recall what they are. If you remind me, I can revisit this. Certainly, a small, fast, DFA-based back-end for xpressive would be ideal. It's been a while since I had that kind of free time, though. -- Eric Niebler Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
