+#
+# passed to tokenize_string() returns the token list

+# When this is passed to parse_expr() it returns the expression
+#	['hip', ['hop', 'hur-ray']]
+# plus an empty token list (because there are no tokens left.
+#
+# When a file containing the example is passed to parse_file() it returns
+# a list whose only element is the output of parse_expr() above:
+#	[['hip', ['hop', 'hur-ray']]]
+
+
+# TOKENIZING:
+#
+# Comments start with semicolon (;) and continue till the end of the line.
+#
+# Tokens are separated by whitespace, except the following characters
+# always form a separate token (outside strings):
+#	( ) '
+# Strings are enclosed in double quotes (") and backslash (\) is used
+# as escape character in strings.
