Hello everyone! Yes, fbreuer.de is down and will be for some time. Thanks Joris, for putting my code up on the TeXmacs server.
Ralf, I do not know how useful you will find my previous work, as it is written in XSLT and Ruby and the main difficulty of making this a proper part of TeXmacs is the wrangling of TeXmacs' scheme API (at least that is what stopped me back then of turning this into a proper plugin). Also, my code has the drawback that the code parts have to be (almost) verbatim text. I find that for a LP system in TeXmacs to appeal, it has to make it possible to use TeXmacs' typesetting capabilities to write "pretty" code. That is basically why I did not pursue the idea David and I had come up with later on of keeping the code in ASCII and only the comments in TeXmacs markup. So, having thought about both approaches I would also go for approach (2) (as in Joris' numbering), *but* I would like to point out one severe difficulty: generating source code makes debugging much less convenient, as the line numbers a compiler complains about refer to the generated code and not the TeXmacs document. So much for the history. In recent months I have done some thinking on LP for TeXmacs albeit without writing a single line of code. For what it's worth I will post these "philosophical" thoughts of mine separately.
