        I'm interested in designing an interpreter for a procedural
        language with object oriented features.  (No flames, please.
        I'm just describing what I'm doing.)

        What is going on in the world of intermediate code these days?
        (This may also be considered the world of "virtual machines.")  I'm
        referring to the representation of a program which is executed by an
        interpreter.  Are intermediate codes designed specifically for the
        interpretation of particular languages, or has anyone designed a
        general purpose intermediate code?  Or how about an intermediate
        code for procedural object oriented languages?

        One example of what I am talking about is p-code, the
        intermediate code of the UCSD Pascal system.  I've also
        heard of m-code (from which p-code was reportedly derived).

        Please mail any information, references, rumors, etc., to me.
        Thanks.
