preexpanded
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.
