Nanopass Compiler Library

This repositiory contains a Racket version of the Nanopass Compiler Infrastructure described in [1, 2, 3, 4], along with the beginnings of a test compiler for the library and the rough start to a users guide. The nanopass framework for Racket has been tested on Racket version 6.0, 6.1, 6.2, and the current development version. An R6RS Scheme version also exists which support Chez Scheme, Vicare Scheme, and Ikarus Scheme.
