For note, depending on what exactly you need to parse, but if you can
statically define the parse then Boost.Spirit can do all you want and
a whole lot more with a lot more simple code and it will execute a lot
faster.  If you have an example of what you want done, I (or others)
can give an example Spirit code to do the same if you want a
comparison.
