I'm not sure I see much value in this. sq_pushstring avoids allocating memory if the string already exists in the string table, this method would always allocate+free. That already makes...

I think one solution would be to have a "sanitycheck" parameter in the load function that optionally boundchecks bytecode and looks for other possible exploits. I'd rather not have to...

Aren't most of this scenarios already covered with squirrel threads?(see newthread() etc..) In my company back-end we use "async/await" like semantics for almost everything using squirrel threads, everything is already...

Squirrel doesn't build an AST so I never added this as it didn't sound trivial. I have to take a look how Lua does this, they also don't build an...
