Commentary
==========

This facility is an enormous step forward compared to earlier versions
of the interpreter; however, some wishes are left: It would be nice if
the proper indentation were suggested on continuation lines (the parser
knows if an indent token is required next).  The completion mechanism
might use the interpreter's symbol table.  A command to check (or even
suggest) matching parentheses, quotes, etc., would also be useful.
