Hi,

I'm writing a parser for the RAPID robot language.
I'd like to know what is a good way to approach the following 
parsing problem. Something specific for RAPID is that 
for loops, conditional, function, module definitions
all use a familar MODULE < module block > ENDMODULE
or PROC < procedure block > ENDPROC structure.

My question is what is the right way to go about this?
Here we have an example of a procedure defined in RAPID.

Intuitively I would write a regex that matches the 
name of the procedure, its argument and the procedure block.

Another way would be to drop into a state when such a 
START / END block is found, but that feels unnecessarily
 complex.


PROC top_front( string strNoStepIn )
    ! procedure block
    MoveL ...;
ENDPROC

Since this pattern is so present in the language, I'd like to get it 
right and in a p(l)ythonic manner. Thing is that I'm too new to the 
parsing to really see that. 

Thanks,

-jelle
