//  Simple lexer/parser to test the Spirit installation.
//
//  This example shows, how to create a simple lexer recognizing 5 different 
//  tokens, and how to use a single token definition as the skip parser during 
//  the parsing. Additionally, it demonstrates how to use one of the defined 
//  tokens as a parser component in the grammar.
//
//  The grammar recognizes a simple input structure, for instance:
//
//        {
//            hello world, hello it is me
//        }
//
//  Any number of simple sentences (optionally comma separated) inside a pair 
//  of curly braces will be matched.
