Unless 4D provides a command to get this information, I don't think there are any shortcuts - you need a real parser. You can get part of the way there in 4D, but it is a very long road to get it right. You are better off using a language that has a parser generator. I wrote one in Lisp. If you want better direct integration with 4D, there are several parser generators available for Javascript.
