I'm looking for some sort of macro-processor written in Elisp.
Ideally, it would be something which could do recursive expansions in
the TeX (as opposed to M4) style, but I'd be grateful for anything.
(My aim is to use it to translate a generic markup scheme for
documentation into LaTeX/[nt]roff/runoff, etc.)

I read in a BibTeX style file that someone has written a version of
the C preprocessor in Elisp, but I've been unable to contact its author.
If anyone has this, it would be a good starting point.

Many thanks.
