Pat, why are we trying to avoid overloading of characters?

Given that a context for each variable already exists
and we cannot avoid it.

We already know what a variable takes, so then
we can just parse for THAT particular thing.

How about this (BNF) (Just an example, just an example):

IFMarkInt=<RangeValue>
OFMarkInt=<RangeValue>

<RangeValue> ::= <integer>
<RangeValue> ::= <integer><RS><integer>
<RangeValue> ::= <RangeValue>,<RangeValue>
<RS> ::= : | - | ~
