Yes, I came to the same conclusion but from the point of view of what constraints would I need to apply to do it only in the lexer. Nicely it matched what Geoffrey described. I'd maintain some brace depth and ignore new lines when inside at least one brace. A block open/close is returned when the indent depth increases/decreases respectively. A bit grim, but seems like a simple enough hack. Python gives the appropriate errors when I fail to follow these rules which is somewhat nice. -- Sam http://samason.me.uk/ _______________________________________________ bitc-dev mailing list [email protected] http://www.coyotos.org/mailman/listinfo/bitc-dev
