Although Lua is nice :-), sometimes it's best to provide the user with a
simple shell-like command-line interface. But if you do so, you'll have
to parse and execute the line. lcl does that for you. A line like
print us $me and $you
is evaluated in Lua as
print("us",me,"and",you)
lcl also supports s-expressions (but in immediate mode with no support
for special forms). An expression like
(print 'us' me "and" you)
is evaluated in Lua as
print("us",me,"and",you)
lcl is in the public domain and is available at

Enjoy. All feedback welcome.
