+re2c is a tool for writing very fast and very flexible scanners. Unlike
+any other such tool, re2c focuses on generating high efficient code for
+regular expression matching. As a result this allows a much broader
+range of use than any traditional lexer offers. And last but not least
+re2c generates warning free code that is equal to hand-written code in
+terms of size, speed and quality.
