elixir: Transmutation of Languages

Tools for transforming 'R' expressions. Provides functions for finding, extracting, and replacing patterns in 'R' language objects, similarly to how regular expressions can be used to find, extract, and replace patterns in text. Also provides functions for generating code using specially-formatted template files and for translating 'R' expressions into similar expressions in other programming languages. The package may be helpful for advanced uses of 'R' expressions, such as developing domain-specific languages.
