Youch!  Seeing the chapter headings for the last few unwritten chapters, you could write a whole book just there!

I think I speak for a lot of us when I say we'd happily pay a whole dollar more for a few hundred more pages.  :-P

I do actually have a write up from a prototype of the book before it was a design patterns book. I was thinking about creating a bytecode generator to go along with the bytecode interpreters but getting the LLVM stuff in there would be cool.

I'm almost done with the high level interpreter chapter. I should be able to start on the bytecode chapter next week. Then I need to start on the generating structured text chapter.  I'm running out of pages.  I have only about 80 pages left to play with; 350 pages max for the book.
