I'm implementing an IRC bot that can run arbitrary APL expressions. Since this bot can run code submitted by anyone, I need to ensure that the code can't affect the system where the APL expressions are executed.

This is the purpose of the --safe flag, but I have noted that several destructive operations are still permitted when using this flag.

In particular:

There is probably more, but preventing these would be a good start.

Elias
