Core and builtins
-----------------

- Feature #13: Improved print function. For example:

print "My favorite number is" + ": " + str(73)

- Feature #15: Implemented Stateful Interpreter. For example:

_ -> print "My favorite number is: " + str(_)


- Feature #17: Remote procedure URL can be an expression. For example:

fcn_73@"xmlrpc://localhost" + ":8000"

And

fcn_73@None

And

Are both equivalent to:
