RE: Line lexer...

["Javier Abdul Cordoba Gandara" <cordobaj@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

	Uhm good point. Maybe I'm using the gold hammer here as I'm very
used to work with AST's! The facts are that we're not the only entity
that build the strings. We kind of publish the format and others'
implementations not always follow it to the letter, the constraints at
the semantic level are kind of weird. I feel a tree representation would
be nice.

  I'm presuming a format like that isn't hand edited. Why on earth would
you be worried about a lexer or parser (or XML!) when you have such a
simple unmarshalling job? -Rowan
