Hey! This is great! Thanks for doing it! I'll check it out right now.

> A few issues:
> - Dungeons example is not complete
> - animation is done differently
> - doesn't compile some rules due to frame size limit
> - Due to a limit of a frame size, rules are limited in length
> - Explicit use of LCompiler is needed to embed code:
> (LCompiler evaluate: 'Family new :? father(x,y)') do: [:pair | ...]
> - otherwise requires change to Parser class (rather than LParser)
