Yeah, jart's cosmopolitan is awesome. I've even sent some floating point code her way!

I have my own take on the "embed data into the executable" problem too. It's the one thing I've made that I think is truly novel. I developed a tool to copy the data into the ELF in such a way that Linux mmaps it in automatically. Lone can just reach it at runtime via the auxiliary vector. No need to read /proc/self/exe.

The ELF editor is written in C right now. I'm getting the language ready to host it as a lone application. That'll make it easy to redesign this feature and develop even more high level features on top of the code loading.
