Having everything in memory will allow to run the       parsed source immediately, without creating an precompiled file. Then       you'll immediately use the structures as required by the VM, apart       from what comes into mind while only parsing.              DoDi              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
