            - ``.tok`` represents the token type.  See below for values.

            - ``.val`` is the token's value, if any.  See below.
            - ``.pos`` is the buffer index of the first character of
              the token.

        * Single-character tokens:

            These are "{", "}", ":", ",", "[", and "]".
            ``.tok`` holds the single character and ``.val`` is None.

        * Multi-character tokens:

          * COMMENT:

            This token is not normally returned by the lexer, but it can
            be when ``skip_comment`` is False.  ``.tok`` is "#", and
            ``.val`` is a string including all chars until end-of-line,
            including the "#" itself.

          * STRING:

            ``.tok`` is "'", the single quote.  ``.val`` contains the
            string, excluding the surrounding quotes.

          * TRUE and FALSE:

            ``.tok`` is either "t" or "f", ``.val`` will be the
            corresponding bool value.

          * EOF:

            ``.tok`` and ``.val`` will both be None at EOF.
