Short Introduction

Trafo is an ATerm to ATerm utility. You can just pass an expression in plain concrete syntax to it. It has to be parsed first:

$ sglri -i test1.exp -p Exp.tbl | ./Trafo
Plus(Id("abc"),Bracket(Plus(Id("hij"),Mul(Bracket(Plus(Id("jkl"),Id("ghi"))),Id("def")))))

exp-transform is the right tool to pass expressions in concrete syntax to. It implements the complete pipeline from expression to expression. Note: exp-transform only works after installation. You can choose: install the package, or specify the build time XTC repository:

XTC_REPOSITORY=../XTC ./exp-transform -i test1.exp

or just (after installation)

$ ${xt-applet-prefix}/bin/exp-transform -i test1.exp
