Subject: New to TXR...Where to Start?
Hello TXRers,

I'm new to TXR and found it while trying to find the best language for parsing and transforming text from one shape to another.

I started out with Perl but things started getting messy.

I then came across Lisp/Scheme and thought "hey I think this may be what I need".

From there I found TXR and although I'm still not 100% how to make it do something useful (not really knowing where to start with it) I still fel that this little thing is exacrly what I need.

Other than the documentation on the TXR page, is there other documentation I could look at to get me started?  Some tutorials maybe?  Something that can guide me step by step?

It's quite different than what I'm used to...

Regards,

yves
