- Write a non-trivial app in EightBall to discover the pain points - Write a non-trivial app in EightBall to discover the pain points
- Optimize virtual machine bytecodes, based on study of real code - Optimize virtual machine bytecodes, based on study of real code
- For example, it would be good to have an instruction to drop n bytes from call stack rather than repeated `POP`, `DROP` as the compiler currently does. - For example, it would be good to have an instruction to drop n bytes from call stack rather than repeated `POP`, `DROP` as the compiler currently does.

Features will only be added if:
1. They do not increase the code size so much that it is no longer practical to run EightBall on Apple II and C64. (VIC20+32K is already a tight fit.)
2. Language features must have both an interpreter and compiler implementation.
