preview on Lispyscript.pl

hi

I'm working on Perl variant of Lispscript. I have lot of questions and
ideas, but I'm tired, so right now I just wanna show you some first
results. I'm interested in your opinion if this is in spirit of
Lispyscript.

echo_pl.ls:
1 (my $echo (sub ($foo $bar)
2 (print $foo $bar)))
3 ($echo "hi" "you")

==> echo_pl.pl:
1 my $echo = sub() {
2 my ($foo,$bar) = @_;
3 return print($foo);
4 };
5 $echo->("hi","you");

notes:
- I tried to stay as close as possible to the JS variant
- decided not to hide Perl's context sensitivity, therefore the sigils
($echo) are needed
- in javascript there is no difference in calling a function or a
closure in perl there is, therefor I added the 'ffi' keyword:
* (print str) is in fact (ffi print (str)), that in turn is wrapped in
macro called 'print'

Hey,

This is great, and looks good to me. My Perl is kinda rusty, but i think you are doing the right thing. Look forward to seeing more of this.
