I need to do this (later) for embedding an external scripting
language. My thought was to something like
<scriptlang> x = 3; for(;;) {blah; blah; blah;} </scriptlang>
Then the xml parser would just hand this off to my parser, which
might return an ast or something. Seems cleaner than inventing
bunches of new tags, and done properly, could be independent of
scripting language.
