cal... thank you for working on and posting this. I could definitely 
using something like this to get more understanding of what goes on 
under the hood. Unfortunately I made a switch to *nix OSes (MAC OSX and 
and more recently Ubuntu) back in 2011 and have never looked back. Can't 
wait for *nix support to be implemented.

You suggest that it is not your idea of a proper repl. Is there plans of 
returning to the drawing board to develop that idea from scratch?

Eagerly,
