Impressive stuff. I've been fighting with (Gnu) emacs when writing a lexer for handling parens and backslashes, and look forward to working with something that will automatically understand my reader macros (:

i think i spotted a small error in the s-expression-syntax library: https://novaspec.org/cl/3_1_Evaluation#sec_3_1_2_1_3 implies that keywords happen to behave in a self-evaluating way but are not considered self-evaluating objects. i think this means that (s-expression-syntax:parse 'list t :foo) should return a :VARIABLE-REFERENCE node, not a :SELF-EVALUATING node

I think I finished all the declarations except the type specifiers. I still have to write tests for the OPTIMIZE declarations as well. Tomorrow I should be able to attack the type specifiers.

Thanks! I am working a little bit too hard at the moment. I am hoping to get to a point where the "boilerplate" coding is over.

i keep thinking that there should be a way to generate the required code from minimal declarative descriptions, maybe by introspecting syntax and part descriptions. but i don't have any concrete ideas at this point
