you might have looked at sc and sescript in the past, but what ive
changed now is that i removed features that dont map directly to a
single c syntax form and straightened things out to really make the
output as if originally written in the target language (albeit
unformatted).

links:

* https://github.com/sph-mn/sescript

sometimes i wondered if the number of round brackets is a bit much for
the imperative style of c and javascript and if a coffeescript-style
indent-based syntax would be better suited. but the simplicity,
structural editing and reading speed im used to with scheme make up
for it.
an interesting thing ive found is that i need about 50 test cases to
test ecmascript and its edge cases and 140 to test c - that says
something about the complexity of these languages.

Sounds fun ! I've to try that :)
Thank you for your work !
