#Rhai

I've been using #Knitfile for a while and it's pretty good.

But now I get annoyed with Lua `require()` which doesn't allow arbitrary path. I think replacing Lua with #Rhai script should solve the problem. Unlike gopher-lua, rhai provide a way to customize the syntax. However, the whole project (:knit) need to be rewritten in Rust

#Rhai is a scripting language for #Rust.

Rhai is a configurable, embeddable scripting language for use in Rust programs. Rhai scripts can easily be loaded and executed from a Rust program, even for no-std or #WebAssembly targets. Rhai supports closures, OOP, dynamic typing, and a simplified Rust-like syntax. Functions and operators can easily be added to Rhai, as well as entirely new syntax.
