This is a (first draft) of a lexer for the Mojo programming language.
In principle, Mojo aims to be a superset of Python, so the Mojo lexer inherits from the Python lexer (thanks to @jneen for the suggestion).
I've never written a line of Ruby in my life, so if anything below looks suspect, that's why.
Currently a little stuck on regexes (trying to get to match outer square brackets in function definitions).
Any pointers appreciated.
