Hi Adrian and friends,<br>
<br>
I need to re-parse some input, starting at an offset and an initial<br>
state. I know I can just set "p" to the offset and "cs" to the state,<br>
however, my states are meaningful outside of the parser. My program is a<br>
language parser for syntax highlighting, so I need int constants that<br>
represent the type of tokens founds. I need some way of saying, "parse<br>
this char[] at offset X using initial token type LITERAL_CHAR". I don't<br>
care if the LITERAL_CHAR constant is the same as the parser state, but I<br>
need some way of setting "cs" to a specific machine name or label.<br>
<br>
I came across a post on the mailing list from 2007 saying, "For a really<br>
long time now I've been meaning to implement a new feature which should<br>
help you out. %% write entry <machine_or_label>;". This would work<br>
nicely I think. I guess it has been a *really* really long time now, eh?<br>
:D Is there any chance that this feature could be implemented soonly?<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
