===========
|
|
|
|
This project was an attempt at making it possible to write efficient macros which produce code using other macros.
|
|
The goal was to statically pre-expand parts the generated code within the generator, so that the produced code consists mostly of primitives (`let-values`, `if`, …), but can still be specified in a concise way (`let`, `cond`, …).
|
|
|
|
To do this properly, one would need to consider the generated macros as source-to-source functions which can be partially applied.
|
|
|
|
This attempt however only consisted in hard-coding the expanded form of a few common macros, in a way which could easily and efficiently be injected in the generated code.
