Ah, that's great! I hope it's alright I submit them to the Shootout? BTW: Are there already existing language implementations atop Neko? Even if not, I'd personally start with Smalltalk or JavaScript. Do you think it would be feasible to use Neko as a system-wide VM, where the whole "OS" is running inside a Neko instance atop a microkernel; all applications would actually be Neko modules, which were written in a language atop Neko. The only thing I'm unsure about are drivers; so far, I have not seen a way of accessing the hardware / emitting machine code / using assembler? Maybe this sounds far-fetched, but it sure would be fun :-) --Ernst Rohlicek -- Neko : One VM to run them all (http://nekovm.org)
