Almost does what I want. Exception: editable priming. The best I can do:

prime
To get that 'prime', the user needs to type two up-arrows: the first to
get past 'l=readline.readline()'. If these lines appear in a .lua
file, only one up-arrow is needed. In both cases I would prefer not
having to type any up-arrows.
