Hi Jamal,

I've got a proposal in for our software engineering team's here to, if
it is approved (one never knows about these things), add in API
functions into our language, probably including some fruit basket
examples. We're also hoping to add linux support soon, so hopefully
this will add at least a nominal contribution here as well.
