Although I wonder why you want to do this (translate FakeBasic -> Perl).
If you are trying to make something useable for some users who might

See: http://epaperpress.com/y_man.html

Consider purchasing: http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/lex/

Finally, I've no experience with it, but some people like ANTLR/PCCTS as
an alternative to lex/yacc:  http://www.antlr.org
