+
+   Fast scanner for RFC-822 type header information
+   
+   This parser handles Debian package files (and others). Their form is
+   RFC-822 type header fields in groups seperated by a blank line.
+   
+   The parser reads the and provides methods to step linearly
+   over it or to jump to a pre-recorded start point and read that record.
+   
+   A second class is used to perform pre-parsing of the record. It works
+   by indexing the start of each header field and providing lookup 
+   functions for header fields.
