 argument values they are necessary. All lines are terminated by a byte
 of all zeros.

+## Design Philsophy
+
+Creole is small but not minimal. It is easy to add instructions, and
+the amount of labels, registers, and stack space can changed at runtime.
+System calls can be added dynamically, but static instructions that take
+at most 3 arguments should be hard-coded.
