  • You might also want to have a look at Nu language. Yes, it isn't for C but it is really cool! programming.nu Commented Jun 29, 2013 at 8:00

    Take a look at this C-on-top-of-Lisp compiler with macros: bit.ly/cux2i5 (sorry it's a zip file, apparently there is no project page or even a github repository). It parses C into S-expressions-based AST which is then type-checked and translated into an LLVM AST. There are two types of macros, first type is executed at the parsing stage and second type is what you're looking for, S-expressions based, executed during typing pass. See the examples in tests/ directory. P.S., it's a literate program, so here's a PDF: bit.ly/12wSMks Commented Jun 29, 2013 at 9:42
