* This interface describes a character stream that maintains line and
* column number positions of the characters. It also has the capability
* to backup the stream to some extent. An implementation of this
* interface is used in the TokenManager implementation generated by
* JavaCCParser.
*
* All the methods except backup can be implemented in any fashion. backup
* needs to be implemented correctly for the correct operation of the lexer.
* Rest of the methods are all used to get information like line number,
* column number and the String that constitutes a token and are not used
* by the lexer. Hence their implementation won't affect the generated lexer's
* operation.
