I don't see the point. Your compiler can emit, e.g.: "while"(test, body)
That's actually how things work right now (very similar to the interpreter from previous versions).
Not quite: $ find lib -name '*.pir' | xargs grep 'sub.*while' lib/commands/while.pir:.sub "&while" You obviously have to mangle the subname first, before you can call it.
Is the argument that inlining will not (even theoretically) provide a speed boost?
No, not at all, that's fine. I just wanted to mention that there are still a lot of code pieces left over from the interpreter.
