Embryo is primarily a shared library that gives you an API to load and control |
| 11 |
|
|
interpredted programs compiled into the abstract machine bytecode that it |
| 12 |
|
|
understands. This abstrac (or virtual) machine is imilar to a real machine |
| 13 |
|
|
with a CPU, but it is emulated in software. The architecture is simple and is |
| 14 |
|
|
the same as the abstract machine (AMX) in the |
| 15 |

SMALL (http://www.compuphase.com/small.htm) language as it is based |
| 16 |

1.1 |
on exactly the same code. Embryo has modified the code for the AMX extensively |
| 17 |
|
|
and has made it smaller and more portable. It is VERY small. The total size |
| 18 |
|
|
of the virtual machine code AND header files is less than 2500 lines of code. |
| 19 |
|
|
It includes the floating point library support by default as well. This makes |
| 20 |
|
|
it one of the smallest interpreting engines around, and thus makes is very |
| 21 |
|
|
efficient to use in code. |
