A good starting point for re2c internals is the following paper:
http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/summary?doi=10.1.1.27.1624
It looks like feasible to add the EOF feature to re2c (which means
switching to states depending of their depth (to ensure to not read
ahead), and becoming ungreedy on regexps like "foo"+ when their is no
additional chars (to unsure to match a token without having to see an
other char next to it)).
Is anyone working on it already ? (or any thought on this ?)
