Er, hm, let’s try that with some HTML escaping:

$ cat pirate.jj
options {
IGNORE_CASE=true;
}
PARSER_BEGIN(Pirate)
import java.io.*;
public class Pirate {
public static void main(String[] args) throws ParseException{
Pirate p = new Pirate(new StringReader(args[0]));
p.ahoy();
}
}
PARSER_END(Pirate)
SKIP : {
” ”
}
TOKEN : {

|
}
void ahoy() : {
String s;
} {
s=.image
{System.out.println(“A pirate said: Ahoy ” + s + ” !”);}
}

$ javacc pirate.jj && javac *.java && java Pirate “Ahoy ‘matey’”

A pirate said: Ahoy ‘matey’ !
