 Replying to [comment:4 nickm]:
 > How is it better than eval?  It changes our language from "Python" to
 "Not really Python".  Taking a quick look at the source for code.py, I see
 that internally all it's really doing is calling compile() and exec().

 eval will execute the code in the same environment (not just in terms of
 os.environ) than the rest of Thandy (and the same applies to compile/exec,
 afaict). With InteractiveInterpreter, it runs as if a new python process
 was doing it. I'll take a look at code.py and figure out a better way of
 doing this.

 string().

 Yes, I guess that's the way to go :) I'll update the patch.
