Parsing Expression Grammar vs. Regexes: Building Org Parser in Lisp, Export HTML

Automated excerpt

In this blog post I want to take you in an adventure of parsing Org mode with Parsing Expression Grammars (PEG) in Guile Scheme (ice-9 peg) and converting to HTML (via SXML): OrgWebAlchemy. I thought it might be interesting to people here who enjoy Lisp, Scheme, parsing, Org mode, or the general idea of meta-meta-meta-programming as I like to call it. So OrgWebAlchemy uses Parsing Expression Grammars (PEGs) through Guile’s excellent (ice-9 peg) module. e. g.
