Can Hy read and rewrite python code?

[Kurvivor19]

Hy can be used as a generator for python code due to built-in compilation into python. Canit also be used for manipulating existing one?
What i am envisioning is domething like reading *.py file and parsing it into syntax tree that can be modified before evaluating it or writing back. Is there capability in Hy for that?

No, see #1721.

There's now an official py2hy. Also, in hindsight, I seem to have misread the question. The answer was always yes: you can use ast.parse and ast.unparse just as you would in Python.
