Example: How to create a new Vat
? introducer.onTheAir()
# value: ["3DES_SDH_M2", "3DES_SDH_M"]
? def seedVat := <elang:interp.seedVatAuthor>(<unsafe>).virtualize(introducer)
# value: <virtualSeedVat>
? def source := "def run(thing) {println(`Thing: $thing`)}"
# value: "def run(thing) {println(`Thing: $thing`)}"
? def [farObj, vat] := seedVat(source)
# value: [<Promise>, <Vat newVirtualSeedVat in <runs in newVirtualSeedVat>>]
? farObj <- ("Hello Vat")
# value: <Promise>
? Thing: Hello Vat
# shutting down the vat
? def ack := vat <- orderlyShutdown("because I said so")
# value: <Promise>
