Options that affect Interpretation of the Input File

`-e keyword delimiter list'

Allows the user to provide a string containing delimiters used to separate keywords from their attributes. The default is ",\n". This option is essential if you want to use keywords that have embedded commas or newlines. One useful trick is to use -e'TAB', where TAB is the literal tab character.

`-t'

Allows you to include a struct type declaration for generated code. Any text before a pair of consecutive %% is consider part of the type declaration. Key words and additional fields may follow this, one group of fields per line. A set of examples for generating perfect hash tables and functions for Ada, C, and G++, Pascal, and Modula 2 and 3 reserved words are distributed with this release.
