I'm sure this has been thought out before, but I'll press on anyway. Assuming parrot shouldn't always create intermediate files (.pbc), then shouldn't parrot be able to take an input stream as an argument instead of a filename? That way, one just has to pipe the output from assemble.pl to parrot. Of course, there will be times you want to create an intermediate file, so I propose we leave that as default, and add a command line option to take an input stream. Below is a quick implementation of that (using -s as the option), but I'm not sending it over the parrot bugs route, because I don't know if this is something you all want or not. There is one problem with this, though: if there is no 'end' command in the code, then you get an error that says "Error: Control left bounds of byte-code block (now at location [LINE_NUMBER])!"
