Eventually, a compiler for a tiny subset of C. For now, a parser for an even tinier subset of C. The name comes from a poem by Catullus (https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Translation:Catullus_22): That Suffenus of yours, Varus, whom you have known well, is attractive and well-spoken and sophisticated, and the same man makes the most verses by far. I think that either ten thousand or more have been written by him, nor have they, as it is custom, been written on palimpsests: [but] royal papers, new books, new scroll-knobs, red leather-straps, skins, aligned with lead and all things having been smoothed with pumice. When you read these, that handsome and sophisticated Suffenus is seen as a goat-milker or a digger again: he shrinks back and changes by so much. We think, why is this? He who just now was seen as a jester by manner or somebody rather knowing about this thing, the same one is duller than a dull countryside, as soon as he touched poems, the same one is not ever as equally happy as when he writes poetry: he rejoices about himself and admires himself so much. Evidently we all are deceived the same way, nor is there anyone whom you are not able to see Suffenus in some way. To each their own error has been assigned; but we do not see the knapsack which is on our back.
