The AST structure does indeed become compicated and difficult to remember.
If your aproach is simpler to implement and understand, and equivalently powerfull
to the AST-AST aproach, it's great. I'll look at jazillian.com for more info.

I do, but unfortunatlly is in greek. The source to source compiler was my
diplomatic thesis for the university. I had to write the docs in greek and now
feel too lazy to translate the docs (60 pages) into (badly spoken) english.
