Admittedly, I've tried not to document the implementation. Yeah, they're pretty much simple dirty Common Lisp macros. Internally, they're functions that are called with the arguments converted to models (via `hy.as-model`), and then the return value is converted to a model. If a macro's first parameter is named `_hy_compiler`, it gets access to the current compiler object; this is undocumented since it's only meant for internal use. Reader macros have no parameters, but can access the current reader object as `&reader`. When it's defined, a reader macro is added to the current reader's dispatch table.
