And yet again I point to Tirade :)

Especially Tirade2 above shows a bit about size (4 classes, 500 loc) speed and 
portability. Tirade is basically a parser for Smalltalk messages that only are 
allowed to use literals as arguments (although arbitrarily nested literals).

Which is exactly what Stef describes + a bit more. :)

Yeah, I remember reading that a long time ago. It is indeed a cool idea, Göran. 
Reminds me of the Erlang related UBF 
(http://www.sics.se/~joe/ubf/site/home.html).

I think the JSON choise is not bad: it is simple and universally accepted.

Yeah, personally I am not upset over JSON - but if one would really want something more Smalltalkish - then Tirade is exactly that IMHO.
