thanks for your report. It seems that hsbrainfuck is not maintianed by

not to use it.
Ah, that explains it, it's not supposed to be a standalone interpreter.
I would say that it's not really useful on it's own ('useful' as a
programmer's toy that is.) as it can't run anthing that uses the input
command or takes more than a few million BF instructions. I suspect it's
specifically designed as the reverse of a dumb text to BF converter.
ie: the most complicated it expects is something like:

So, yes, it can go as a standalone package, but it may be reasonable to
merge it into the lambdabot package as a contrib or something.
