Please be more specific about what you're looking for.  Are you trying
to add a new keyword?  Trying to change the definition of what a
"token" is?  Or something else?  Lexer::LexTokenInternal is the core
of clang's lexer, but there's a bunch of other relevant code in
lib/Lex/ and lib/Basic/ .

http://clang.llvm.org/docs/InternalsManual.html might be useful.

Also, I have no idea what "ASCL" refers to.  If you could provide a
link to a language spec, I could give you some general advice.
