Unless the commands are so simple they aren't Turing-complete, or their 
form is extremely restricted and stereotyped, I suspect this reduces to 
solving Rice's theorem, which is of course impossible in the general case 
for just the same reason solving the halting problem is, and is 
ridiculously difficult even in most useful special cases.
