Suggestion: Make ied interactive #1

Looks great, btw! Gave it a :+1:

Just a suggestion, you can shoot this down if you want:

Vorpal is a recent CLI framework which would make ied into an interactive app. With this, you can run it straight from the terminal and have it execute a single command and then exit as it does now; or you can have the app remain alive in an interactive prompt, sort of giving it its own namespace. In this, you could do some awesome things such as providing tabbed auto-completion of available packages. Here's some examples of what you can do with Vorpal. If you have any questions, just let me know!

Tried it, but introduces tons of new dependencies. Don't like that.
