We could. Actually, you should take a look at my ANTLR implementation, since I had to work to get it right. If you abstract away its details, you should end up with a very clear model for pre-processing. It turns out that there are several preprocessing approaches that LOOK like they'd work, but don't :-(. In fact, the ANTLR book describes a really clear and simple algorithm for generating INDENT and DEDENT; the only problem is that it is fundamentally and deeply flawed (as I posted in earlier emails). --- David A.
