No. I don't have a link. It was developed before I had internet access, bootstrapped using Bill Waite's STAGE2 macro processor. It has the lovely feature that its macro arguments *always* had matched parentheses, no matter how long they were and so I used it in effect to parse Lisp and generate VAX assembler. I used the bootstrap version to build the version I actually used. Much of the source code seems to have disappeared over the years. -- hendrik -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.
