[ragel-users] Anchoring to the EOF

[Adrian Thurston]

In short, there isn't!

Ragel does not make any assumption about the input, and this includes 
not assuming line-based input. If you want to anchor to something you 
just put that something into the grammar at the end. If you want to see 
if the machine finished in a final state (and thus consumed that 
something) you test cs against machine_first_final.

Hope this helps,
  Adrian
