|scanLispStringToken

Function: |scanLispStringToken { [mss endchar] -> [mss start stop line] }
file: job.t
package: lisp
status: alpha

The |scanLispStringToken prim is a hardcoded speed hack intended to put the inner loop of locating the end of a lisp string down in C.

It is called with the desired string termination character and stream (quotation within the string is controlled by the current lisp readtable, @$s.readtable) and returns the usual |scan-token-* result block suitable for passing to |readTokenChars once the line value is popped.
