offline: run image library and save files locally etc. #1724

Hi,

I want to run all of pyret (including image library) locally [without internet]; being able to save and load files locally. It does not seem to be possible.

Have I missed anything?

(even if I build the webserver https://github.com/brownplt/code.pyret.org it looks like I cannot save and load local files.)

PS: You might ask "why?" -> No way... am I going to let my kids work on a requires-online, non-locally-savable environment; particularly not, if it has no image stuff, but only prints. Or have we really arrived at "all online mayhem", you cannot even do your computing on your own system anymore. I kindof feel like Stallman, haha! (He also advocates being in control of your own computing)
