The later uses 15 different characters. Some Lua programs can have over 50! 
NumberScript uses just 10. And you can add line breaks anywhere you like. It's 
also convenient if you ever need to write code using a non-smartphone.

Yesterday's release wasn't displaying the returned values in interactive mode. 
I've fixed that, so you can type '=' at the start of a line to output 
expressions.
