Awesome.  My Inspector replacement was limited to 32-bit but if Newt64 is viable it should be an easy replacement. (https://github.com/jake-b/NewtonInspector)

I looked at Nova to see about adding syntax highlighting for NewtonScript, but the XML based syntax file scared me away. (  I've also been wondering if we could add a toolchain to XCode, but that seems complicated as well.  How awesome would it be if we could compile a PKG from Xcode?

    Never mind, newt64 can do math just fine.  :)
    
    I built a little NewtonScript REPL for the Mac using libnewt, just to see if it was hard to embed into a Mac app (not really).
    
    Here's a GIF of it in action:

    Source code and build instructions for this are here:

    It's not perfect, but it proves it basically works.
