ifile lexing question

I'm working on daemonizing ifile, and I have a question for Jason (or
anyone else deeply familiar with the internals).  The problem is, I
want to schlep a message over a pipe from client to server without
necessarily closing the pipe afterward to send an EOF.  The lexing
code seems to run 'til EOF at the moment, but it looks like I could
maybe set an "end of document" pattern somewhere, and then just
terminate a message-send with something like
"\n------IFILE_END_OF_MESSAGE-----\n" or somesuch.  

Since there are a bunch of nested lexers, I'm not sure where to try to
set such a pattern -- can you give me any suggestions?

Thanks,
Jeremy
