I hadn't. Thank you.
Also, looking at Tom and Scala as implementation langauges. Tom
because it is a pattern matching language, Scala for the fancy
case statement, both because they are JVM targeted, and that's
where I'm working these days.

Also, I'm interested in seeing what Terrence Parr is up to over
at ANTLR. He's working on generating DFA as bytecode.

This is apart from a discussion of the XPattern language, which
ought to get going in a separate thread.
I'll probably start out by doing some simple matching, as a
proof of concept, so that I'll know what I'm up against as the
language is specified. Any other input on DFA implementations is
welcome.
