Dear List,
N00b. I have a stream of characters that can be chunked into lines, and the characters in a line can be chunked into tokens. My problem is that the character denoting the end of line and the character delimiting a token changes from message to message. For any message I know that the third character will be used as a token delimiter and the 100th will be the line delimiter, or something like that. The idea is that I can't generally reserve a character that will not appear as content in the message, but I can reserve a character on a message-by-message basis. I would like to learn to build some grammar tools to process this kind of stream, but I don't know where to start. All the books and articles I have read so far on language start with a fixed, static list of delimiters. Can you help me learn how to design language tools when whitespace tokens vary?
