- ;;; Commentary:
-
- ;;; manages receiving a stream asynchronously,
- ;;; parsing it into transactions, and then calling
- ;;; handler functions
-
- ;;; Our basic structure is the queue/process/buffer triple. Each entry
- ;;; of the queue is a regexp/closure/function triple. We buffer
- ;;; bytes from the process until we see the regexp at the head of the
- ;;; queue. Then we call the function with the closure and the
- ;;; collected bytes.
