[section:primitives Token definition Primitives]

This module includes different primitives allowing you to create token definitions.
It includes `char_`, character literals, `string`, and string literals.

[section:char_tokendef Tokens Matching Single Characters]

[heading Description]

The character based token definitions described in this section are:

The `char_` creates token definitions matching single characters. The `char_` 
token definition is associated `standard` encoding namespace. This is 
needed when doing basic operations such as forcing lower or upper case and 
dealing with character ranges.

[heading Expression Semantics]

Semantics of an expression is defined only where it differs from, or is not
defined in __primitive_lexer_concept__.

    [[`lex::char_(ch)`]     [Create a token definition matching the character 
                             `ch`.]]
