[racket] Re-usable C-like input syntax
Hi List,
Checking if anyone has any ideas or advice on this.
I'm writing a DSL for (music) DSP low-level algorithm design, and I'd
like to use some C-like syntax front on top of the default s-expr input
to avoid having to confront people with Scheme.
I realize this approach has been tried many times and was abandoned
maybe just as much, but I am confronted with a practical issue in the
target audience. It's amazing how much friction a foreign syntax can
cause in practical embedded/DSP engineering circles...
Is there anything re-usable out there in Racket land that looks like C
but with a simpler grammar or a simple map to s-expressions? The
language I'm implementing is purely functional / single assignment, and
looks pretty much like Scheme at this point.
A subset of JavaScript would maybe also be good enough.
Cheers,
Tom
