```
## Todo
* Use serialization to allow creation of bytecode files that can be loaded.
This includes defining a file format for the bytecode files.
* Better error messages, expecially for compilation. This probably means string
formating functions.
* Pattern matching/regex library.
* Macro/specials system that happens before compilation
* Module system that happens before compilation. This would be closely tied to
the macro/specials system (require implemented as compile time special). For
now, a runtime require might make more sense.
* Change name (gst is the name of many projects, including GNU Smalltalk).
Maybe make logo :)?
* Automated testing, including Makefile target.
* Travis CI.
* Change C API to be stack based for fewer potential memory management
problems. This could mean making current C API internal and use separate
API externally.
* Store source information in parallel data structure after parsing
* Use source information during compilation
* Bitwise operators that operate on integer types
* Use Lua style memory alocator backend C API (one single function for
allocating/reallocating/freeing memory).
* More CLI functionality for main client
* Document builtin libraries and functions.
* Document C API.
* More builtin libraires.
* Fuzzing
