    That depends on how readable you want the output to be. It’s already pretty bad on that front. If you start supporting arbitrary features it’s going to end up as a bytecode interpreter. Which would be pretty cool too tbf! Has anyone written a WASM runtime in bash? 😄

        Yeah definitely! I wouldn’t hold your breath though. Especially as that’s pretty much an escape route from POSIX. I doubt they’d be too keen to lose power.
