            wrapper "monadUserState-bytestring". The AlexUserState =
            AlexUserState {sheetNames:: {String], currSheet:: Int}.  The
            lexer should check whether a found sheetname is in
            sheetNames. The sheetNames from AlexUserState come from
            outside. I want to invoke the lexer many times with
            different AlexUserStates.  Therefore the alexInitUserState
            function is not what I want. I’de like to initialize the
            AlexUserState while starting the lexer, i.e. as a parameter
            to runAlex. Can that be done?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
