gollark: So if you replace the osmarkslisp™ parser with json.decode and work out how to fix the string/atom distinction given that, and add string manipulation functions, parsing regex should be doable.
gollark: Well, Lisps are typically encoded in S-expressions, but it's entirely possible to have an utterly homoiconic program in JSON instead.
gollark: My code prints an intractably large number of bees and is thus superior.
