okay I am asking for work related help :)


I need to parse a configuration file which looks somewhat like the 
elisp file for emacs. 
basically i will have a file like 

(var1 "value1") 
(var 2 
      (var3 
           (var4  1.2345) 
           (var5   True) )) 


is there any parser (preferably in c/c++ ) which I can use to create a 
tree out of this file ? 

well i found a couple if anyone else is interested

I've been teaching myself #Lisp and have some observations and questions on
the Lispy way of coding. Too long to post here, but I hope you'll follow the
link and leave comments either here or on the wiki.
