Yes that could be a solution. It seems easy to implement and work
with. But I want to try emulate what Pascal Script is doing. Also I am
wondering is it possible to execute code that is compiled/placed in
memory (e.g. do all stuff that is normaly done by the OS to load the
application and then execute it (don't know exactly how)).

Thanks for the answer.
