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.
