It seems that the string "<>" at the end of some html document
is interpreted as "comment", and not as text.
Is this a bug, or this this some obscure syntax in HTML that I do
not know about.
(In my program I frequently need to parse some short string
as html. Like "Press the buttons <>". Bingo.)
Here is a small program that demonstrates the behaviour.
Even adding a space or newline at the end of the string makes
the resulting token "T" again.
$ perl -MHTML::TokeParser -le '
$s = "<>xx<>";
$p = HTML::TokeParser->new(\$s);
print join "\t", @$t while ($t=$p->get_token()),
'
T <>xx
C <>
