REVISION SUMMARY
  Accurate implementation of BrightScript language, mostly used by Roku
  channel developers and documented at Roku SDK portal:
  
  https://sdkdocs.roku.com/display/sdkdoc/Roku+SDK+Documentation
  
  Highlight sytax covers:
  
  - function and sub definitions, both global and inline
  - comments: ' and REM
  - macros
  - print statement
  - library imports
  - literal type narrowing with: $, %, !, #, &
  - conditionals and loops with: if, for and while
  - built-in and library functions
  - standard Roku Scene Graph keywords: m, top, global
  - array, function calls
  - goto and label statements
  - built-in types used in function/sub arguments and return
  - constants: true, false, invalid
  - distinct assignment and unary/binary ops, e.g.: if a = b c = d ' first = is a comparison, second = is an assignment
  - invalid syntax detection in some cases
  
  No folding is supported at this point.
