Not a whole lot has been written about this. Kenner is rumored to
have written a document describing it... If you find a pointer to it,
be sure to get us to put in a link to it.
Basically all you have to do, it do up your parse, build tree codes to
represent the semantics of it, call expand_expr on it, and your done.
:-) Right Per? There are just a few missing pieces that you'd need to
learn before that will just work. Watching how C or C++ works is one
way to get started.
