At one point I did pack all the macro-expansion code with images. Then I removed it because I had trouble fitting the image within the 600K bootloader limit.. Then, there's there are some problems from the fact that movitz is a cross-compiler. I.e. some macroexpanders expect a "proper" execution environment that is more that can be expected of the movitz target environment so far. So there is some cleaning up to be done, here. For example, I don't think there's any backquote support on the movitz side, yet. Should the macro-expanders be compiled or not? Should compiler-macros be included too? I suppose they are of no use without a compiler. -- Frode Vatvedt Fjeld
