 The bytecode instructions are added but still the functionality needs to be
 added to the device interface to be implemented by clients. The following
 addition to \CI{interface.h} and the interpreter shows the added instructions.
+When adding a peripheral, the devices not having the peripheral do not need to

+number if added correctly. The peripheral byte in the device specification by
+default shows a negative flag for every peripheral. Only the peripherals added
