Hi Chris,

The grammar is Smalltalk. If you look at the InterpreterProxy you will see the 
vocabulary.

If you want to see the actual translation to C, look at 
CCodeGenerator>>initializeCTranslationDictionary and  
SmartSyntaxCodeGenerator>>initializeCTranslationDictionary, in which the 
special cases are handled.

I've summarized most of the interesting parts of the vocabulary (though I 
haven't finished describing it) in my paper on building plugins.
