Add Gorilla REPL support #8

Open NicMcPhee opened 9 years ago

It would be nice to be able to run this from a web browser, so it would be interesting to try to add Gorilla REPL support, or possibly just use the Quil web support.

Actually, it's not clear that Gorilla REPL is really intended for embedding a run in a web app. It doesn't seem to support things like animations, for example, so I'm not sure it's the best tool for the job (that I had envisioned). So I think I'm going to set this aside for now, and instead see if I can get the Quil code to run in the browser (new Issue #10).

It's possible that the "right" way to use Gorilla REPL is to have the runs off in server/cloud land, and have the Gorilla REPL notebook be an "active dashboard" providing a window on that work. It wouldn't make a lot of sense in this case because the problems too simple/finishes too fast for that, but it might be worth exploring.
