+;;; tq.el --- utility to maintain a transaction queue
+
+;;; Copyright (C) 1992 Scott Draves ([e-mail])
+;;; 
+;;; 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.
