derive-finite-automaton

A procedural macro for building a finite automaton. Main use is for lexing multiple character wide tokens see derive-finite-automaton/examples/main.rs.

Run example:

cd derive-finite-automaton
cargo run --example main

View example macro expansion (requires cargo-expand):

cd derive-finite-automaton
cargo expand --example main
