Any reason not to use $() instead of backticks?

This mixed indentation with both tabs and spaces is a bit messy.

Why do you use let here when you do $(()) calculations at other places?

This could be one line, no? Or just set offset to 0 if it is empty and 
avoid that if alltogether.

Another argument for offset=0 as default.

"<<<" is a bash extension and will not work with /bin/sh.

I would go for a local variable being set to $compat or $entry and 
calling emit at only one place. And there should be only one if with 2 
expressions, no need for 3 branches.

Inconsistent indentation.
