--- Lexical scanner for creating a sequence of tokens from text.
-- `lexer.scan(s)` returns an iterator over all tokens found in the
-- string `s`. This iterator returns two values, a token type string
-- (such as 'string' for quoted string, 'iden' for identifier) and the value of the
-- token.
--
-- Versions specialized for Lua and C are available; these also handle block comments
-- and classify keywords as 'keyword' tokens. For example:
--
--    > s = 'for i=1,n do'
--    > for t,v in lexer.lua(s)  do print(t,v) end
--    keyword for
--    iden    i
--    =       =
--    number  1
--    ,       ,
--    iden    n
--    keyword do
--
