Hello,
I'm pleased to announce Guile State Machine Compiler (Guile-SMC), version
0.1.0:
https://github.com/artyom-poptsov/guile-smc/releases/tag/v0.1.0
I'm hoping that it will ease the burden of writing format parsers and
other useful GNU Guile libraries for the community.
* What is Guile-SMC?
Guile-SMC is a state machine compiler that allows to describe finite
state machines (FSMs) in Scheme in terms of transition tables. It is
capable to generate such transition tables from a PlantUML state
diagrams. [1]
A transition table can be verified and checked for dead-ends and
infinite loops. Also Guile-SMC FSMs gather statistics when they run.
Guile-SMC comes with a Scheme program called 'smc' -- a state machine
compiler itself. It produces a Scheme code for an FSM from the PlantUML
format. This tool is meant to be called on a PlantUML file when a
program with a FSM is being built (for example, from a Makefile.)
* Usage examples
I wrote an INI[2] format parser to test the foundation ideas behind
Guile-SMC from the practical perspective:

I'm going to release it soon as well.
Happy hacking,
- Artyom
