; expression tree pattern matching
; matches expr against pattern p and returns an assoc list ((var . expr) (var . expr) ...)
; mapping variables to captured subexpressions, or #f if no match.
; when a match succeeds, __ is always bound to the whole matched expression.
;
; p is an expression in the following pattern language:
;
; _       match anything, not captured
; <func>  any scheme function; matches if (func expr) returns #t
; <var>   match anything and capture as <var>. future occurrences of <var> in the pattern
;         must match the same thing.
; (head <p1> <p2> etc)   match an s-expr with 'head' matched literally, and the rest of the
;                        subpatterns matched recursively.
; (-/ <ex>)  match <ex> literally
; (-^ <p>)   complement of pattern <p>
; (-- <var> <p>)  match <p> and capture as <var> if match succeeds
;
; regular match constructs:
; ...                 match any number of anything
; (-$ <p1> <p2> etc)  match any of subpatterns <p1>, <p2>, etc
; (-* <p>)            match any number of <p>
; (-? <p>)            match 0 or 1 of <p>
; (-+ <p>)            match at least 1 of <p>
; all of these can be wrapped in (-- var   ) for capturing purposes
; This is NP-complete. Be careful.

; top-down fixed-point macroexpansion. this is a typical algorithm,

; of expression composition. in other words, if the outer loop terminates
; on all inputs for a given set of patterns, then the whole algorithm
; terminates. pattern sets that violate this should be easier to detect,
