would it be worthwhile to target llvm-ir? then it'll be possible to use the llvm toolchain to generate arm/x86 code.

To be honest, until I saw your project. I didn't know os-less programming was even possible. My experience with low level programming is limited to a couple of MIPS tutorials...

@akkartik: So I downloaded qmeu and went though the linux/bootstrap code and the game of life code. Also, I went through your paper in the Portugal conference and did a...

Hmm. For me, `the simplest possible language translating to LLVM IR` would be a lispy LLVM IR (like the example I put above) transpiling to IR. Additional `language` features can...

It could be some sort of low level scripting interface for qemu base systems. that would be really cool.

Yep. Got it. I think it's safe to separate out the language (format + packaging) from the runtime. Here are some questions/comments I have for both: ------ Runtime - How...

would something like this be useful: https://fctorial.com/posts/parse_struct.html?

@akkartik Yep. That makes sense. I'm gunna stick to LLVM IR. I think there may be a simplistic way to achieve something resembling `live-eval` by shelling out to `qemu` -...
