Hi,
Thanks for the response.

I have successfully generated AST from my  "hypothetical language" which
can be translated to C. I want to use LLVM instead of building my own
compiler. Rewriting "C" may work (I may have to try). I don't want to
generate IR as it is hard to read whether the C output is exactly what I
meant to write.

Thank you! :)
