+
+   DESCRIPTION
+   -----------
+
+   flex lexer specification for a BitBake input file parser.
+
+   Unfortunately, flex doesn't welcome comments within the rule sets.
+   I say unfortunately because this lexer is unreasonably complex and
+   comments would make the code much easier to comprehend.
+
+   The BitBake grammar is not regular.  In order to interpret all
+   of the available input files, the lexer maintains much state as it
+   parses.  There are places where this lexer will emit tokens that
+   are invalid.  The parser will tend to catch these. 
+
+   The lexer requires C++ at the moment.  The only reason for this has
+   to do with a very small amount of managed state.  Producing a C
+   lexer should be a reasonably easy task as long as the %reentrant
+   option is used.
+
+
+   NOTES
+   -----
+
+   o RVALUES.  There are three kinds of RVALUES.  There are unquoted
+     values, double quote enclosed strings, and single quote 
+     strings.  Quoted strings may contain unescaped quotes (of either
+     type), *and* any type may span more than one line by using a
+     continuation '\' at the end of the line.  This requires us to
+     recognize all types of values with a single expression.
+     Moreover, the only reason to quote a value is to include
+     trailing or leading whitespace.  Whitespace within a value is
+     preserved, ugh.
+
+   o CLASSES.  C_ patterns define classes.  Classes ought not include
+     a repitition operator, instead letting the reference to the class
+     define the repitition count.
+
+     C_SS - symbol start
+     C_SB - symbol body
+     C_SP - whitespace

+   DESCRIPTION
+   -----------
+
+   lemon parser specification file for a BitBake input file parser.
+
+   Most of the interesting shenanigans are done in the lexer.  The
+   BitBake grammar is not regular.  In order to emit tokens that
+   the parser can properly interpret in LALR fashion, the lexer
+   manages the interpretation state.  This is why there are ISYMBOLs,
+   SYMBOLS, and TSYMBOLS.
+
+   This parser was developed by reading the limited available
+   documentation for BitBake and by analyzing the available BB files.
+   There is no assertion of correctness to be made about this parser.

+BitBake Shell
+
+IDEAS:
+    * list defined tasks per package
+    * list classes
+    * toggle force
+    * command to reparse just one (or more) bbfile(s)
+    * automatic check if reparsing is necessary (inotify?)
+    * frontend for bb file manipulation
+    * more shell-like features:
+        - output control, i.e. pipe output into grep, sort, etc.
+        - job control, i.e. bring running commands into background and foreground
+    * start parsing in background right after startup
+    * ncurses interface
+
+PROBLEMS:
+    * force doesn't always work
+    * readline completion for commands with more than one parameters
