+# This module compiles a regular expression that recognizes Python tokens.
+# It is designed to match the working of the Python tokenizer exactly.
+# It takes care of everything except indentation;
+# note that un-escaped newlines are tokens, too.
+# tokenprog.regs[3] gives the location of the token without whitespace
+# It also defines various subexpressions, but doesn't compile them.
+# See the function test() below for an example of how to use.
