I have to produce a lexical analyser in Smalltalk-80 for an abstract
document editor. I thought I could reuse the Smalltalk class
'Scanner', but it looks like its tuned for scanning Smalltalk. 

 Is it worth my while useing this code, or should I start from
scratch?  Has anyone else done this?

I am using ParcPlace smalltalk v2.2

Thanks in advance,
