>From some experiments I have done, we can make substantial improvement by
streamlining next_char. What I have in mind is reading a whole or partial
block of a file and returning a pointer. Then advancing forward next char is a
matter of incrementing the pointer,or back as in unget_char, decrementing the
pointer.
push_char then becomes simply an assignment. This approach would get rid of
all the function calls and and do the necessary manipulations with pointer ops
and assignments. It will take some careful rework, but I think it can be done.
Janne, is this what you had in mind? are you doing this?
