Yeah, the only problem here is that if I want to recompile the  
parsers after installing I need to load the Refactoring-Browser and  
SmaCC-Development as prerequisite. Both are pretty big packages that  
are not needed otherwise, however if I can find a solution to that  
problem, that will be the only workaround.

Something like

	(PRDocumentScanner class sourceCodeAt: #scannerDefinitionComment)
		readStream upTo: $"; upTo: $".

and

	(PRDocumentParser class sourceCodeAt: #parserDefinitionComment)
		readStream upTo: $"; upTo: $".

does work in my image.

Cheers,
Lukas
