squim - a js implementation of kernel

=====================================

this project tries to implement an parser and interpreter for the kernel*

language implemented in javascript.

* http://web.cs.wpi.edu/~jshutt/kernel.html

how?

----

using jison for parsing and requirejs for modularity.

why?

----

I need a safe language for webapp customizations in a project and implementing

the base as a lisp (kernel actually) gives me a solid foundation.

also, never implemented a lisp and want to understand kernel better.
