+// Name: msglm

+//processes the input data 
+//this is the only process in the entire program thus the 
+//term "proc" is accurate. We don't process data in in() or out().
+//
+//How this works is it takes a string, and goes through it char-by-char, 
+//once it hits a < it notes its position and marks a flag
+//then it does the same for the next >, marking its pos and marking a flag. 
+//once the < and > flags have been raised, the total
+//length of the tag that was detected is calculated, and then the string itself is sliced
+//
+//from there a small bit of clean up is necessary, restarting 
+//the position counter to count from the start
+//and resetting the flags.
