rapid genetic evolution of regular expressions

For another tack on generating
code, see Cleese's Boa:

We used it for the lowest level
code in Cleese, interfacing the
python VM with IDTs, GDTs, etc.

If you want to do NASM-level bit
bashing, but in a python syntax,
and have gcc handy to do all the
heavy lifting, it might prove to
be of some interest.
