netpd does quite a bit of text parsing, so it is possible. I don't think that the dataflow nature is bad for parsing text, I think the we don't have any good libraries for it. zexy has quite a bit of stuff, but we need an escape mechanism, for example.

IMO it isn't. Can't you do the parsing somewhere else, like in a pdlua object?
Much more comfortable for text. Ciao
