Hello list,

I started working on a lexer generator for Unicode. The architecture is
similar to ocamllex, except that ulex lexers use a new kind of lexbuf that
holds Unicode code points. It is possible to inject in these lexbufs any
Unicode stream (for the moment, adapters are provided only for Latin1/utf8
streams/strings/channels, but you can also pass Unicode code points as
integers).

Lexer specifications are embedded in OCaml code, and parsed with a Camlp4
syntax extension.

As several people showed interest in Unicode support for Caml, I thought I
could make a preliminary release to collect feedback on the design of
ulex. Here is the tarball:
