Hi,
A brief note to say that I have merged the PEG parser written by Michael
Lucy for GSOC 2010 to master.
I just noticed that I did the rebase incorrectly: the commit

After thinking about it more, you have two choices.
The easiest thing would be to parse each line (or extended line, if it
ends with "\") with a PEG parser, and use your own logic for the
blocks. Your p
Hi, thanks for a quick response!
I've actually found no PEG library that has a string syntax for the
equivalent of ignore. I'm guessing most people are satisfied with just
specifying another nonterminal and matching that one. Probably because it
is seen as less ugly than extending on the formal de
Hello,
Thanks for emailing! I suppose I am the one to talk to, since I was
the last one to work on it.
I didn't make the PEG parsing syntax, but I would guess the reason
there isn't a string syntax for ignore is that there's no conventional
way to write it, but there is for the other PEG elements
Actually, I think I found a way to make it work. I had missed a macro
that needed to be copied from one module to another. I made each
module import the other, and that seemed to work all right.
As soon as I have time, I hope to turn this into a patch series that
splits the PEG module up into nice

Hello,
I tried looking at it a bit. First of all, your cleanups are awesome. :)

Hello all,
Sorry for the late notice, but I'm about halfway through porting
peg.scm to use hygienic macros, so if anyone else was thinking of
doing it, you might want to save your effort for something else. Or
email me and I'll send you what I have.
I hope no one else has already started.

Putting it in single quotes should work. E.g. " '[' ". Similarly,
you can add a literal single quote by making it part of a character
class. E.g. " ['] ".
You're right, I should definitely add something about that to the documentation.
Any other weak parts you've noticed while perusing?

Hello again,
I've run into another issue with the parser that should be addressed
in the documentation (or the code?).
How do you match a character that is used in the PEG grammar, like
"["? Can you only define such matchers via s-expressions?

Hello all,
I was just looking at the PEG parser code, which is currently in the
"mlucy" branch of the Guile repo. I was looking at it to see if it was
ready to be merged.
First of all, it passes its test suite. This is pretty good, because
its test suite includes a grammar for itself,

Mmm, not really. I hope it will be soon, but I want to go through the

You see that the expansion of `(b '(1 2 3))' in the module `(d)'

I've officially eliminated the last define-macro expression.

The original program made extensive use of functions in building the
macros, and I originally tried to replace these with macros. This

I'm still working on this. I haven't dropped off the face of the

define-macro macros, they called some functions (passing in symbol
names) to generate blocks of code. This technique essentially depends
on variable capture, so I can't re
