is not.
This is a rather rediculous limitation. This parser just ISN'T ready
for prime-time folks. I'm going back to 2.n until this stuff is
cleared up. I woudl be happy to write a proper and correct parser
for the language if people want me to, but the context sensativity of
the current one is rediculous.
(No offense to whomever did it. The problem is probobly that an
attempt was made to mdify the old one, which was really written for a
line-oriented scriting language, rather then starting from scratch
properly.)
