Welcome to the lack of a Rainbow.js wiki.

As long as you're here, here's some runtime compatibility information:

Node.js 0.6.13 on Windows 7: Works.

Node.js 0.6.13 on Windows 7 under Cygwin (but using Node's Windows installer): Doesn't work. In earlier tests (using an earlier version of Node, perhaps?), even non-Cygwin failed to start the REPL thanks to a hard-to-reproduce out-of-memory error when reading files... so that might still be occurring here.

Chrome 17.0.963.83 on Windows 7: Works.

Firefox 11.0 on Windows 7: Works.

Opera 11.61 on Windows 7: Works.

IE 9.0.8112.16421 on Windows 7: Works.

IE 8 on Windows XP: Haven't tested in a while, but never had remotely acceptable loading time, even when just loading arc.arc. Probably can't be fixed.

"Internet Browser" on Android 2.2: Works, but takes a long time to load over the Web (91201ms).

Firefox on Android 2.2: Works, but takes a long time to load over the Web (124998ms) and displays one "terminate this script?" dialog along the way.

Opera Mini on Android 2.2: Strange. Displays "repl in 20039ms" as soon as the page loads, and then doesn't really process any more input. The "successful" load probably happens because of an Opera Turbo proxy server prerendering the page. So even if Rainbow.js doesn't work in Opera on the client side, maybe it can be used for programming the Opera Turbo pipeline. :-p

3DS: Last time I checked, presented more "stop this script?" dialogs than I cared to count and then stopped the script in spite of me. Probably can't be fixed.
