Actions:
* could be per state or per transition
  - either would work - maybe you could allow both
* needs some more punctuation
  - e.g. action in {...}
* could be C code (like lex/yacc) or could just be characters to output
  - I suggest the latter, as the former is hard, and at least you can
	write simple filters
* use a special symbol to indicate the character just recognised
  - e.g. $

You may need to change the system in other ways
e.g. make newline processing explicit, . = anything as in lex.

actions per state:

1: 'a' 2;
2: 'a' 2, '\n' 3;
3{just read a+ on a line}@ ;
*1

actions per transition:

1: 'a' 1, '\n' 3 {just read a* on a line};
3@ ;
*1

and you could have transitions and messages e.g. for blank line, unexpected
characters etc.

you could even have variables & simple boolean expressions
but this requires you to drastically change the parse trees.
e.g. to recognise 1 or more of any 1 character on a line:

1: . 2 {$a=$};
2: . 2 {$a==$}, '\n' 3;
3{just read $a+ on a line}@ ;
*1

Another example would be a filter, like ze sveedish chef
- see link on extras page

1: 'a' 2 {ah}, 'e' 2 {ee}, '.' 1 {$};
etc.
