   * as described below.  The parsing strategy is as follows:
   * <ul>
   * <li>Skip any whitespace characters.</li>
   * <li>If a numeric character is encountered, attempt to parse a numeric
   * value.  Leading '-' characters indicate a numeric only if followed by
   * another non-'-' numeric.  The value of the numeric token is terminated
   * by either the first non-numeric encountered, or the second occurrence of
   * '-' or '.'.  The token type returned is TT_NUMBER and <code>nval</code>
   * is set to the value parsed.</li>
   * <li>If an alphabetic character is parsed, all subsequent characters
   * are read until the first non-alphabetic or non-numeric character is
   * encountered.  The token type returned is TT_WORD and the value parsed
   * is stored in <code>sval</code>.  If lower case mode is set, the token
   * stored in <code>sval</code> is converted to lower case.  The end of line
   * sequence terminates a word only if EOL signficance has been turned on.
   * The start of a comment also terminates a word.  Any character with a 
   * non-alphabetic and non-numeric attribute (such as white space, a quote,
   * or a commet) are treated as non-alphabetic and terminate the word.</li>
   * <li>If a comment character is parsed, then all remaining characters on
   * the current line are skipped and another token is parsed.  Any EOL or
   * EOF's encountered are not discarded, but rather terminate the comment.</li>
   * <li>If a quote character is parsed, then all characters up to the 
   * second occurrence of the same quote character are parsed into a
   * <code>String</code>.  This <code>String</code> is stored as
   * <code>sval</code>, but is not converted to lower case, even if lower case
   * mode is enabled.  The token type returned is the value of the quote
   * character encountered.  Any escape sequences
   * (\b (backspace), \t (HTAB), \n (linefeed), \f (form feed), \r
   * (carriage return), \" (double quote), \' (single quote), \\
   * (backslash), \XXX (octal esacpe)) are converted to the appropriate
   * char values.  Invalid esacape sequences are left in untranslated.  
   * Unicode characters like ('\ u0000') are not recognized. </li>
   * <li>If the C++ comment sequence "//" is encountered, and the parser
   * is configured to handle that sequence, then the remainder of the line
   * is skipped and another token is read exactly as if a character with
   * the comment attribute was encountered.</li>
   * <li>If the C comment sequence "/*" is encountered, and the parser
   * is configured to handle that sequence, then all characters up to and
   * including the comment terminator sequence are discarded and another
   * token is parsed.</li>
   * <li>If all cases above are not met, then the character is an ordinary
   * character that is parsed as a token by itself.  The char encountered
   * is returned as the token type.</li>
