Ignore break line sometimes

Show all headers | View raw

Hi all!

I'm trying write an parser to my compiler, and I'm interessed to ignore the break line (\n) sometimes. E.g:

if true then [\n]
  foo(); [\n]
end; [\n]

So, in the first line, the '\n' after 'then' isn't important, but in the second "foo();" could replace the need of the semicolon to conclude the statement, or still, in the 'end'.

Too ignore '\n' in the white lines.

How can I do this?
