Maybe it's just me: when I see ip I think of internet protocol,
intellectual property, etc but never "interp". Just -events is fine with me.

[thanks for the examples]

Ok, now I understand and agree that it is completely unrelated to comm
package. One possibility is to extend the [interp create] itself to
support a -empty option. It already supports -safe option and a -empty
option would restrict it even further by creating an empty interpreter.
