/*
 * Task template system:
 *  templates are rules for a specific test, used to create a "task" that
 *  is executed with those set of rules (arguments, and what not). Tests
 *  that don't have a template with them cannot become tasks, since without
 *  the information for that test there is no way to properly "test" them.
 *  Rules for these templates are described in a template file, using a
 *  task template language.
 * 
 *  The language is a basic finite statemachine, top-down single-line
 *  description language.
 * 
 *  The languge is composed entierly of "tags" which describe a string of
 *  text for a task.  Think of it much like a configuration file.  Except
 *  it's been designed to allow flexibility and future support for prodecual
 *  semantics.
 * 
 *  The following "tags" are suported by the language
 * 
 *      D:
 *          Used to set a description of the current test, this must be
 *          provided, this tag is NOT optional.
 * 
 *      F:
 *          Used to set a failure message, this message will be displayed
 *          if the test fails, this tag is optional
 * 
 *      S:
 *          Used to set a success message, this message will be displayed
 *          if the test succeeds, this tag is optional.
 * 
 *      T:
 *          Used to set the procedure for the given task, there are two
 *          options for this:
 *              -compile
 *                  This simply performs compilation only
 *              -execute
 *                  This will perform compilation and execution
 * 
 *          This must be provided, this tag is NOT optional.
 * 
 *      C:
 *          Used to set the compilation flags for the given task, this
 *          must be provided, this tag is NOT optional.
 * 
 *      E:
 *          Used to set the execution flags for the given task. This tag
 *          must be provided if T == -execute, otherwise it's erroneous
 *          as compilation only takes place. 
 *      
 *      M:
 *          Used to describe a string of text that should be matched from
 *          the output of executing the task.  If this doesn't match the
 *          task fails.  This tag must be provided if T == -execute, otherwise
 *          it's erroneous as compilation only takes place.
 * 
 *      I:
 *          Used to specify the INPUT source file to operate on, this must be
 *          provided, this tag is NOT optional
 *
 * 
 *  Notes:
 *      These tags have one-time use, using them more than once will result
 *      in template compilation errors.
 * 
 *      Lines beginning with # or // in the template file are comments and
 *      are ignored by the template parser.
 * 
 *      Whitespace is optional, with exception to the colon ':' between the
 *      tag and it's assignment value/
 * 
 *      The template compiler will detect erronrous tags (optional tags
 *      that need not be set), as well as missing tags, and error accordingly
 *      this will result in the task failing.
