lexertl started life as a regex library. After the initial
development I discovered boost::regex and decided there wasn't
much point in yet another regex library and instead went on to develop
lexertl. What changed was I saw
this post on StackOverflow.
This library is bare bones. I haven't coded lookup for it and I haven't coded a code generator. The only thing it is good for at the moment is for passing a regex and dumping the state machine. It would be easy to develop a simple code generator for embeded work if anyone is interested in that and I'm happy to if there is interest. At this point, to go beyond the obvious switch statement solution and get clever like re2c, I'd welcome some collaboration.
