There are lots of such VMs around. Basically most optimized interpreters
work this way, although they often don't save the their code
into files, but just keep it around in memory.


If you need something BASIC specific: iirc the StarBasic interpreter
in OpenOffice compiles to a VM internally. I'm not sure it allows to
save the immediate files though. You could probably extract it from
their source base and reuse it in your application. StarBasic is a
pretty complete VisualBasic like BASIC.
