## Interactive Mode BASIC Interpreter (#232)

Ellohay Rubyists,

This quiz is courtesy of Jean Lazarou.

This week's quiz is to extend the BASIC interpreter from quiz
#228[1][2]  so that it can start in interactive mode.

In interactive mode, we should be able to type following commands:
- 'load' a program,
- 'list' the loaded file,
- 'run' it,
- 'quit' the interpreter,
- 'debug' the program.
Once debugging, the user should be able to set breakpoints, display
the active breakpoints, display a variable value or all the variables,
remove breakpoints and step the program.

Optionally, breakpoints could be conditional, user could change the
variable values, and more.

Have fun!
