+% functions for dealing with lines of text
+% eg obtaining one, parsing it into a list of words, and rejoining it
+
+% prompt provides the user with a '>' prompt
+% readList merely obtains and parses the input
+% readLine obtains a raw line of input
+% split parses a line of text into words
+% join takes a list of words and joins them into one string
