# Quasi-Quote
This is an alternative to [`quote`](https://crates.io/crates/quote) that doesn't rely on [`proc-macro2`](https://crates.io/crates/proc-macro2).
It also uses a slightly different syntax that allows interposing control flow and quoted code.

## How?
The basics are as follows: The `QuoteExt` trait contains the most immediately useful methods,
and the `qq!` macro converts its input tokens into a type that implements `Quote` (and thus `QuoteExt`).

A simple example:
```rust
use qq::{qq, QuoteExt};

#[proc_macro]
pub fn generate_echo(input: proc_macro::TokenStream) -> proc_macro::TokenStream {
	qq!(fn output() {
		~for (i, tok) in (input.into_iter().enumerate()) {
			println!(~(format!("Token {i} was {tok}")));
		}
	}).quote()
}
```
For more details, refer to the crate documentation.

## Why?
These are some possible motivations for using this crate:
- You want to write a procedural macro with minimal dependencies.
- You have read the source code of `quote` and/or `proc-macro2` and were rightly horrified.
- You dislike having to do all control flow before invoking `quote::quote!`.
