It should be possible... I'll check out the lambda-the-ultimate... After 
all, it's lists all the way: lists that contain things; lists that leave 
things out.. a list of things that aren't on any list. :)

But certainly, downloading language implementation is easier by just 
downloading the git repository.

I see. It's amazing! Looks like a metalanguage as a set of efficient 
solvers implemented in C++.
It would be great to make it as easy to install as, say, lisp,.. but I 
found dockerization <https://github.com/opencog/docker>, the video 
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qfwMV18is6M> and the book *"Engineering 
General Intelligence,"* which answers my questions, for now.

Thanks!
