This needs to be explored, but it is my understanding that Crunchy would not be
supported - as it needs long running processes (e.g. embedded interpreter).
From
http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/whatisgoogleappengine.html
==
# An application cannot write to the file system. An app can read files, but
only
files uploaded with the application code. The app must use the App Engine
datastore
for all data that persists between requests.
# Application code only runs in response to a web request, and must return
response
data within a few seconds. A request handler cannot spawn a sub-process or
execute
code after the response has been sent.
==
Still it is worth exploring.

True, but in practice most crunchy scripts run almost instantaneously (and
terminal
commands tend to be even faster). We would have to use some clever
serialisation to
keep track of state though...
Maybe as a backend to an implementation with the code running in silverlight...?

Am going through one of my periodic cleanups of old issues that I started: This
isn't
really accepted, moving to New.

I've attempted to do this and ran into a time limit for scripts. While the vlam
processing is "reasonably fast", it is still too slow to be useful in practice.

This should be resurrected and take inspiration from pywhip.
http://pywhip.appspot.com/
A tabbed interface could be used so that each page contains one doctest-based
example
and one imbedded interpreter (with some docs). The idea is: experiment at the
interpreter (and learn), then go to the testing page.
Before work begins on this, we need to confirm that we can backup the stuff
saved on
the GAE server - which was not the case when I initially looked at it.
The interface I have in mind is inspired by GvR online:
