X Abstract

We present a domain specific language for manipulation of binary data, or structured byte sequences, as they appear in everyday applications such as networking or graphics file manipulation. Our DSL is implemented as an extension of the Dylan language, making use of the macro facility. Dylan macros, unlike Common Lisp macros, are implemented as pattern matches and substitutions on the parse tree, and we will show the strengths and limits of this approach for the given problem.
