Hi Dirk, hi Sean,

I read your notes about LPeg, Dirk, ...and I fear I only understand
half of it (which is for sure due to me...and not based on the notes,
your wrote!)...I am happy to have them.

Using the re-code to learn about how to map "regexp-think" to
"LPeg-think" is a good idea. I will try it ! :)

Best regards,
Meino
