What if you could define an additional set of keywords and for each keyword a mapping to a sequence of tokens? In that case, you can perform such substitutions before the actual parse process starts. This would work for your particular problem: but it's rather early in the entire process to be really useful. (not to mention that I'm not sure if it is possible to 'dynamically' extend the lexer) Arie_______________________________________________ Cocci mailing list [email protected] http://lists.diku.dk/mailman/listinfo/cocci (Web access from inside DIKUs LAN only)
