I have a hard time trying to imagine what you are trying to do. You
should try to explain to us what you are trying to accomplish.
Why are you storing a parse-tree?
What does the parse-tree store?
Does the buffer of which it is a representation change, when the parse
tree changes.
How are you trying to "use" the parse tree? Is it meant for one-way
or two-way conversion - i.e., interpretation or exportation.
