Re: Lua incremental parser

[Asko Kauppi <askok@...>]

Also luaSub has a parser for (extendable) Lua.  It's done partly in C,  
partly in Lua.

May I ask, what is an incremental parser?  One that streams stuff s.a.  
Lua's own built-in parser does?  Or something else?

or:
	svn co svn://slugak.dyndns.org/public/2009/luaSub
