This should work. I think you still need a "real" stack of pads. The opcode "new_pad" creates a new pad whose parent is the top of the stack, and replace this parent by the new pad in the stack. The opcode "invoke" push the subrouting pad onto the stack. The opcode "ret" pop the top of the stack. -- Jerome
