only, so that we have more flexibility in both levels. Work in the C++
version is looking good, class - like "package" management is what I
have in mind; the format of the book is oriented by itself on such a
path. The work will eventually surface, but this time I want as much as
features to be complete as possible before posting, no need to rush.
Except, I had in mind that we'd be working together a little bit more on
this. We already have a repository with a place for concept code - and
the code, even though I did do some work on it yesterday, is still in
its very early stages. So, there's no harm done if we completely
restructure it according to whatever ideas you have.
My hope was that we'd discuss features, concepts, and coding methods
here, and then the code would go into the repository. Until such time as
you have an account (which I'm sure would happen soon enough if we
actually started working together like this), any code snippets/patches
you present I can drop in.
If we do it this way, instead of one of us working on a complete concept
on his own (and privately at that!) there's a much better chance of more
people following what's going on and in turn being able to jump in and help.
As of right now, the C++ code that is in the repository is set up to
parse a file and separate all <...> tags from anything else, as per our
discussion. It can also recognize a call to a SYSTEM entity file
declaration and pull that in, parse and add entities to a linked list.
The next thing I was going to do is add the code to recognize
xi:includes and parse those.

If you can see a better way to do *any* of those things - or a better
way to structure the code - I have no objections to altering what's
there for something better. And the code isn't so far along that we
can't change it, even drastically so, if we need to. We have the
resources available, this list and the repository, let's use them please.
