Where should I start to write a custom language for PLT? Is there any information on the net (or maybe information in the manual I’m overseeing?) Or are the existing language packs the best reference for such a task?
Thank you in advance!

The book – Programming Languages: Application and Interpretation might be a good place to start, especially chapter XII “Domain-Specific Languages and Metaprogramming”. It uses PLT Scheme for the code samples, and the entire book is a worthy read.
