Another possibility to to embed your report generator in a language
like scheme or lisp which has syntactic extension facilities. This
gives you the benefit of being able to write your code in a fairly
high-level language (like scripting) and at the same time building a
language.


Olin Shivers webpage has some articles and examples of these kinds of
things (an awk macro written in scheme which is only 7% of the code of
C awk and has a lot of advantages over traditional awk) Anyway an URL
to the relevant paper (and other interesting stuff is)
http://www.ai.mit.edu/~shivers/citations.html


see A universal scripting framework.
