readLine(L) :-
    get0(C),
    buildList(C,L).


buildList(10,[]) :- !.
buildList(C,[C|X]) :-
    get0(C2),
    buildList(C2,X).

wordList([X]) --> whitespace, wordList(X).
wordList([X]) --> word(X).
wordList([X]) --> whitespace, word(X).


word(W) --> charList(X), {name(W,X)}.


charList([X|Y]) --> char(X), charList(Y).
charList([X]) --> char(X).


char(X) --> [X], {X>=33}.


whitespace --> whsp, whitespace.
