  /// The Interp class is the main afnix interpreter engine. The interpreter
  /// operates on three streams, the standard input, the standard output and
  /// the standard error stream. By default, the interpreter install a 
  /// terminal object, unless the three streams are specified at construction.
  /// The interpreter holds a series of registers. For each basic types,
  /// like integer, real, character and boolean, the interpreter has 256 
  /// local thread registers. The operations associated with the registers
  /// are type dependant. For integer and real, these are mostly arithmetic 
  /// operations. For boolean, these are logical operations. The interpreter 
  /// has a top level (or global) nameset. The global nameset is shared 
  /// between all interpreters and is referenced as '...'. On top of this, 
  /// the interpreter provides a 'compile' method which takes a form and 
  /// generates a new one. The sole purpose of the compile method is to
  /// perform static checking and generate a new form ready for execution.
