I have performed the required translation in lex (scanner.l). After receiving arguments from the command line, the required value is generated.
args_for_gen_value ({digit}{1,3}{space}{digit}{1,3})
{args_for_gen_value} {
unsigned char paf_field[14] = {0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0};
yylval->string = xstrdup(build_paf_val(yytext, paf_field));
return STRING;
}
Hopefully this will be of some use to someone.
