Gel: A Generic Extensible Language

Here are the slides from my presentation on Gel. You should also check out the source code for Gel here.

There is an online version of Gel, although it is not the latest version. Feel free to download the latest version and run it, or use the online version. Either way let us know what you think, or where we could improve.

Thanks for the all comments and the great discussion lead by Andy.

    - A possible source of confusion in the presentation is that Gel is not just a universal representation of parse trees (like XMP or s-expression). In particular, it is also a method for parsing terms.

  2. I've only skimmed the slides, but the goals appear to be similar to ASF+SDF, except that it's a lot less generic or extensible, full of ad hoc parsing conventions.

    I'd be interested in a comparison (particularly in one that proves this first impression completely wrong).
