That sounds exciting. I wonder if this might facilitate the port/implementation of IPython for Lua. IPhython allows to execute several blocks of code simultaneously and they are also using zmq for cross-process communication. Have you looked into that or is this project motivated by such an example?

That looks great! I used to run a similar architecture in Python until recently, so I'll definitely check it out.

Would you consider changing the binary name to something other than "node", such as "lnode", "luanode " etc.? That's already the name of Node.JS's interpreter.
