&gt; offhand is &quot;Enchilada&quot; and its author&#39;s next language &quot;SPREAD&quot;, the<br>
&gt; latter at http://oercode.blogspot.nl/. (I don&#39;t remember where<br>

&gt; However, rewriting lambdas is a little different. iepos wrote a paper<br>

&gt; It&#39;s fairly simple compared to general concatenative rewriting.<br>
