[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #39831] New Tex interpreter requires delimiters around characters

[John W. Eaton]

Follow-up Comment #9, bug #39831 (project octave):

Michael Goffioul,

Yes, I realized after I sent my first comment that you would probably have to
list all the symbol names in the flex input file.  OTOH, you could just gperf
to look up symbol definitions in the text engine function that is currently
using a linear search.  For now, I'd say leave it as a linear search.  It's
more important to me that we not have to maintain two separate lists, so
generating these bits of code from a single file seems like the right thing to
do.  If you just make it use a linear search now, I could probably modify the
script that generates the code to use gperf without much trouble later on.
