Description: # Macal Package
        
        This is the installation package for Macal, a Python script Language by Marco Caspers.
        
        Macal was developed for a limited and specific use.
        
        Creating a human and machine readable configuration file that loads data, transforms the data and emits the data.
        Loading happens by calling functions from libraries specific to a particular (Rest/XML) API.
        
        Emitting data is currently limited to the console and SysLog.
        
        In the tests folder find the test.py utility that contains several tests.

        Please note that this package was previously called pyql, however there already existed a pyql project so i renamed it.

          make the name more obvious and easier to read.

        - Lexer token is now a class.
