> input consists of a sequence of commands.  Commands are made up
   of a number of tokens, depending on the syntax of the command.
   Tokens are usually separated by whitespace, but need not be if
   there is no ambiguity.  There is no special command separator; the
   next token that syntactically cannot belong to the preceding
   command starts a new one.  (Usually you would put a new command on
   a new line, for clarity.)  Tokens can be certain key words, special
   characters (parentheses, commas, etc.), numbers, or double-quoted
   strings.  Everything is case sensitive.
