>"This linker can facilitate program introspection. I plan on having symbols the linker itself provides to the program image that allow the program to inspect its own symbols. This opens the door to a whole variety of interesting things:
o Call any function in your program in an interactive read-evaluate-print loop
o Visualize function compiled sizes
o Visualize function references
o Introspect on program data
…and more things I haven't thought of yet!"
Brilliant idea! I'd love to see this linker when it is complete! I hope you succeed wildly in this endeavor!
