Most of it is implemented already.  Other features will be
implemented.

Some things are easy to implement.  Like the test and expr commands.
I hope I can move the iterators to modules as well.  Modules are
easier to maintain, because of its interfaces.

But of course there are things that I do not like, when talking about
maintainability:

- The lexer is handcoded, I prefer a generated scanner.
- Preventing memory leaks is annoying.
- Perhaps more thoughts about error handling is required.

I think it is simple already.  But suggestions to make the code easier
to read, increase maintainability and flexibility are always welcome.
