Our new project member, elchuxo, is currently working on a Perl lexer, called pplex. The program will allow to write flex like input files for scanner generation. Versions for the programming languages Tcl and Python will be released soon afterwards. The code for the Perl lexer is not yet released but is already in the CVS: http://bioscanners.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/bioscanners/lexer/perl/. In the samples directory is already a wc implementation. Comments and suggestions are welcome.
