Ever heard of Objective-C? It's a very nice language. A strict superset of C. Anyway, I've thought about scraping the whole vm thing and implementing a small runtime (like Objective-C does) what will allow C to use prototype objects. I could call it pC for Prototype C! It would be a runtime library and a C preprocessor. Basically, I could run pC source code through a preprocessor which would convert the sourcecode to pure C code. Then, you would just have to compile the C code and link it with the pC library! Yummy!
