cool, look forward to seeing the new version

hmm, I hoped this would have been easily achieved, but I guess I will
understand more your problem when I get to look at the code

well as you have seen the parsing/code generation are all tied up
together, there is no handler that can be used, short of redesigning the
basic compiler/parser engine. Of course another alternative ( that you
already mentioned ) would be to just use a custom lighweight parser, of
course I would like to avoid having essentially another parser to
maintain ( and that would need to be kept in sync with the 'real' basic
parser ) I think we will have to live with the current situation.
