;;; tq.el --- utility to maintain a transaction queue
;;; Copyright (C) 1992 Scott Draves (spot@cs.cmu.edu)
;;;
;;; manages receiving a stream asynchronously,
;;; parsing it into transactions, and then calling
;;; handler functions
;;; Our basic structure is the queue/process/buffer triple. Each entry
;;; of the queue is a regexp/closure/function triple. We buffer
;;; bytes from the process until we see the regexp at the head of the
;;; queue. Then we call the function with the closure and the
;;; collected bytes.
