Additional front ends? #15

Closed larsbrinkhoff closed 7 years ago

Is there a design to attach different front ends?

tromey commented 7 years ago

I haven't really thought about it. I guess you could either generate the IR directly or translate to elisp.

Thanks. I have been wanting to compile CL to bytecodes for a long time. I already have a compiler which generates intermediate elisp, but I think going to lapcode or some other IR would be better.
