I've been experimenting with the above solution and it is not yielding
the results one might think at first glance.

If we use the example: -e event/@cfg1/ ...

First if we leave things exactly the way they are suggested in the
code snippet flex doesn't know what do to with the '@' character and
returns an error.  To deal with that a new clause

"@"        { return '@'; }

can be inserted in the config state.  But that doesn't link '@' with
'cfg1', and 'cfg1' gets interpreted as a PE_NAME.  Introducing a new
state upon hitting '@' would get us around that but we are moving away
from our initial goal of keeping things simple.
hum, then how about keeping the flex atoms simple like for the
other terms and do something like below.. untested ;-)

thanks,
jirka
