@@ -7,12 +7,16 @@ I should start considering this and how a user may use it. Should it
be an option in the VM and/or assembler binaries (i.e. a flag) or
something the user has to specify in their source files?
+
Something to consider is /static/ and /dynamic/ "linking" i.e.:
+ Static linking: assembler inserts all used library definitions into
the bytecode output directly
+ We could insert all of it at the start of the bytecode file, and
with [[*Start points][Start points]] this won't interfere with
user code
+ + 2023-11-03: Finishing the Start point feature has made these
+ features more tenable. A program header which is compiled and
+ interpreted in bytecode works wonders.
+ Furthermore library code will have fixed program addresses (always
at the start) so we'll know at start of assembler runtime where to
resolve standard library subroutine calls
