I just mean that whenever it's at its starting position it must not move left. It's free to move right as much as it wants, move back to the left as long as it doesn't pass its starting position, and terminate wherever it happens to be at. The reason for this requirement is just that egobfi8 doesn't make a check for the pointer moving left from the starting position and descending into other regions of memory such as other heap structures or the text segment, potentially resulting in indeterminism across platforms. -root
