Overview

Here I will gather some thoughts about metaprogramming in Erlang. Hopefully this will result in an implementation too (some parts have already been implemented). I put this here so that I can get input and the result will become a HowTo.

This is very much a work in progress. Please don't delete anything, just add your comments.

What is metaprogramming?

I won't go into the gory details here, there are plenty of papers on the matter. What I do mean by MP here is the capability of writing programs that handle programs.

Current status

Erlang has already support for metap
