/**
 * Utility class providing an Iterator interface over line-oriented
 * text input. By providing regexs indicating lines to ignore
 * (such as pure whitespace or comments), lines to consider input, and
 * what to return from the input lines (such as a whitespace-trimmed
 * non-whitespace token with optional trailing comment), this can
 * be configured to handle a number of formats. 
 * 
 * The public static members provide pattern configurations that will
 * be helpful in a wide variety of contexts.
